Cash and Carry

These wholesalers are big business in the United Kingdom today. Many of these businesses are family run and their purpose is to sell food, drink and tobacco goods to independent retailers and caterers. Usually they will also supply a full range of grocery,licensed and non-grocery items, as well as fresh fruit and vegetables. The goal is to offer more choice, reducing prices and offering better service to their customers.

Cash and carry wholesalers supply a wide range of businesses including hotels, shops, restaurants, clubs, pubs and B&B's with all of the various food and catering related products covering almost any customer needs including fresh meats and bacons, fresh fruit and vegetables, grocery and dry goods, wines and spirits, beers, soft drinks, cigarettes, frozen goods, breads, fresh dairy produce, cleaning products and toiletries.

These wholesalers almost always offer fruits, meats and vegetables that are supplied fresh daily from markets and if at all possible, depending on the season, they will also use as much local produce as possible. The wholesalers take pride in their butchery departments as well with all preparation and packaging done on the premises by expert butchers. They will cut and package all of the bacon and gammon products to suit your needs which are why so many caterers rely heavily on these wholesalers. Cash and carry wholesalers put forth all efforts to supply everything that is good, fresh, and local to all of their caterers.

Most Cash and Carry wholesalers will also offer their customers with the benefit of a full delivery service. Of course arrangements have to be made in advance but many caterers find it especially convenient to know that they can depend on the relationship that they have developed with the wholesalers and simply pick up the telephone and place an order that is delivered right to their doorstep. This type of service is of great benefit to all caterers and industries within that sector. This only is beneficial though if the wholesaler can be depended on entirely to provide only the very freshest products and the best prices too.
