— How we work

From the field to
your kitchen door.

Seven considered steps, engineered to remove every surprise between our buyers and your service. Here's exactly how a case gets from a farm to your pass.

— The seven steps

Nothing left to chance.

Every process is documented, measured and reviewed monthly by our operations board. It's the reason our on-time rate keeps climbing while our customer count doubles.

  1. 01

    Sourcing

    Our buying team travels to growers, bakers, butchers and mills to hand-select each range. Every supplier is SALSA or BRCGS audited before a single case ships.

    Suppliers audited on food safety, provenance, welfare and reliability annually.
  2. 02

    Quality control

    Every inbound pallet is checked at goods-in — temperature, packaging integrity, batch traceability, sensory sample. Fails are rejected on the dock, not passed on.

    0.4% reject rate at goods-in. Sensory panel meets twice weekly.
  3. 03

    Cold storage

    12,000 pallet positions across chilled (+2 to +4°C), frozen (–22°C) and ambient environments. Continuous temperature logging with alarms to on-call engineers.

    SALSA-certified national cold-chain, 24/7 monitored.
  4. 04

    Order intake

    Order by portal, EDI, WhatsApp or a phone call. Your account manager reviews every order for pack sizes, allergen swaps and promotional stock before it locks in.

    Order cut-off 6pm for next-day. Live stock visible to your team.
  5. 05

    Pick & pack

    Voice-directed picking with barcode verification on every line. Chilled and frozen are packed last, on ice, in insulated liners for last-mile temperature holding.

    99.6% pick accuracy across 3.4M cases picked last year.
  6. 06

    Delivery

    Multi-temp vehicles with rear-mounted refrigeration and load-cell temperature loggers. Live tracking, ETA texts and photo proof-of-delivery on every drop.

    96.4% on-time rate. Twice-daily central-London windows.
  7. 07

    Aftercare

    One click to raise a credit, a swap, or a top-up. Your account manager reviews performance and next-week forecasting with your team on a monthly cadence.

    Average credit resolution: 4 hours. NPS: 68.
