This very well established wholesale and distribution company was established in 2002. Originally offering the wholesale and distribution of dairy milk the business has evolved and now offers dairy produce such as Irish milk and cheese products plus distribution of other Irish food related produce in the chilled food sector from several quality suppliers.
A chilled distribution company committed to the highest standards, the business has grown year on year by understanding the individual needs of its customers and now has a variety of chilled food product lines available and has become a key supplier to the majority of its existing customers.
Clients enjoy regular on time deliveries, a must in today’s’ world, with the ethos to deliver top quality produce at a competitive pricing. The emphasis is placed firmly on the consistency and reliability of service, and providing the personal care and attention each customer requires and deserves.

The business does very little in the way of traditional advertising with most business being received by repeat business, referral and via the field sales representative. The owner recognises that investment in developing a company website would be a valuable asset for the future. |

The current market for this business is consistent with a very good market outlook for future growth.
Business operations are not at maximum capacity and there remains considerable scope for an increase in turnover and profit simply by gearing operations in line with current market demand and build on a well established business simply by doing more of the same.
The business is constantly offering new products and its product lines increase year on year which result in larger orders being received from customers. This also entices new customers to the business.
The business could expand by introducing organic product ranges like yoghurt etc. and by employing additional reps to build up the wholesale business to cover the places that are currently not being called upon. |

Our client is happy to provide full support and training to the new owner for a negotiated period of time in order to ensure a smooth transfer of ownership. |
