Celebrating local artisans

We champion local food and drink artisans, sourcing the finest local suppliers with a focus on ethical practices and reducing carbon footprint.

Tasting sessions

With the food and drink industry being a hugely competitive market, it’s crucial to stay ahead of the game. To achieve this, our buying department hosts regular tasting sessions with a panel of in-house judges to review potential products for our clients. These sessions don’t just include our food and drink buying experts but are company-wide to allow fair reviews and extensive feedback. Investing time into tasting sessions helps us stay on top of industry trends, gain insight into new and emerging products and allows us to strengthen relationships with our suppliers and provide feedback for improvement.
