Description:
Wholesale Food Distribution Company Chilled Foods, Cooked Meats & Dairy Products
Ref.EJ038
Location Greater Manchester
Asking Price £1,350,000 plus stock at valuation
This very well established wholesale food distribution company was set up over thirty years ago and in that time has built up a sterling reputation in the catering sector it serves so well. The business specialises in the sale and delivery of cooked meats, bacon, canned goods and dairy products, including continental cheeses, throughout the North West of England.

The company has grown year on year by understanding the individual needs of their customers. It has over 300 regular clients and these consist of both trade accounts(Including NHS, Local Authorities, Schools and Smaller Wholesales) and retail customers (Independent caterers, van sales operations etc). Trade customers account for 60% of sales, the remaining 40% being retail.

The company has invested heavily in its infrastructure over the years and this has enabled it to continue growing at the same time improving its service levels to customers. The business operates from superbly equipped premises (total area is circa 7,100 sq ft) and has a modern fleet of delivery vehicles. The company has grown to such a size that it now has over 600 product lines available meaning that it has become a key supplier to the majority of its existing customers.

The majority of clients are based in the North West and the company has developed comprehensive route plans to ensure customers enjoy regular on time deliveries, a must in today’s’ high speed catering sector. The company does have a small number of clients from outside the region and serves these via a highly respected and long serving sub-contractor.

The company ethos is to deliver top quality produce at a competitive price. The emphasis is placed firmly on the consistency and reliability of service, and providing the personal care and attention each customer requires and deserves.

Market competition and expansion:
 The business does very little in the way of traditional advertising. All vans are sign written, this gives the company visual exposure and it does have a basic website that would benefit from further development. In saying that a lot of the business comes via repeat business and referrals such is the reputation this business has built.
