We could have held the Foodservice Committee Q2 meeting in a stuffy meeting room at our office - but why would we do that when taking the members to R D Johns' fabulous Newton Abbott HQ for supplier presentations, sampling and a depot tour was a brilliant day of learning and sharing. Thanks to Katie Johns, Stuart Clarke and the team for hosting.

We are proudly the UK's largest wholesale services company with buying power in excess of £8bn.
About us
Unitas Wholesale is the champion of independents and the champion of brands. With a combined buying power in excess of £8bn and a family of 156 wholesale members nationwide, we are proudly the UK’s largest independent wholesale buying group. Our vision is simple, as a first choice business partner we help our wholesale members and supplier partners to save more and sell more! It all started more than 45 years ago when a group of independent wholesalers decided to combine their buying power to negotiate better deals with suppliers. They wanted to offer their retailers better prices to allow them to rival the much bigger players. In November 2018, two of the largest and most successful consortia in the sector, Today’s Group and Landmark Wholesale, joined forces in the face of huge consolidation taking place in the industry. Unitas Wholesale was formed offering its members a sustainable wholesale buying, marketing and selling service, with unprecedented scale and more than 77 combined years of wholesaling experience. Our strength in scale and volume allows us to negotiate the best prices and promotions from all the major food, drink and non-food suppliers so that our cash and carry and delivered wholesalers can pass the benefits on to their customers. Our membership reach includes retail, foodservice, on-trade, and specialist markets, making us multi-channel experts and the most diverse buying group in the industry. If you’re a wholesaler who values their independence but is looking for support in today’s turbulent market, then you too could benefit from joining the UK’s largest independent wholesale buying group. For more information and to get in touch visit www.unitaswholesale.co.uk, we'd love to hear from you!

Absolutely rammed here at Lioncroft Wholesale Ltd' barbecue day - activity throughout the depot including our own Local Living range. Is there a better way to influence retailers' purchases than good old face to face on-the-day deals?

"Let the food do the talking" - We asked some of the 50 suppliers at last week's Meet the Member event to sum up their experience of the quick-fire face-to-face conversations with 40 foodservice wholesalers, which this year included hot food sampling for the first time. Here's what they said. Thank you to Adam Street Kate Robinson Vikki Niccolls Mike Ager Premier Foods Unilever Food Solutions Europastry Kellanova Kara Foodservice

A huge thank you to Premier Foods for providing a fantastic meal at the Unitas Meet the Member event - fantastic flavours built around the new Cape Herb and Spice range, with the expertise of the Whittlebury Park kitchen. Members got a sneak preview of the range which launches in the UK in September.
