EAT
Supply Chain Upgrade
Since its launch in 1996, Eat Café has grown rapidly and now consists of 51 outlets. Success has been based on producing a range of high quality and innovative products in the Company’s own kitchen. These include soups, sandwiches and salads. Of particular importance is the reputation of the Company for producing wholesome fresh products, this requires a distribution operation that delivers items in peak condition to retail outlets.
In order to support the Company’s next phase in its expansion, Eat Café approached Davies & Robson to find a logistics contractor able to achieve its quality standards and support expansion across the UK. Davies & Robson assisted Eat Café with the identification of suitable candidates and managed the tendering process which included the production of the tender document and contractual agreement. Wincanton was the contractor selected and the new contract commenced on schedule and in time to support the current phase of store openings.
Kerry Boyd, Eat Cafe’s Head of Production Operations, said “We are very pleased with the outcome of the tendering process and the support provided by Davies & Robson. The operation is running well and we are on course to meet our expansion targets”.
