Wholesaler Bidfood acquires Elite Fine Foods
Elite fine Foods joins Caterfood, South Lincs Foodservice and Cimandis in Bidfood’s network of independent businesses.
Andrew Selley, chief executive of Bidfood said: “We’re delighted to welcome the team and customers of Elite Fine Foods to the Bidfood family. The company is already a thriving and profitable foodservice supplier in the UK, with a real passion for service which aligns perfectly with our mission to provide service excellence and make customers’ lives easier.

“We will continue to service our customers as before, as an independent business, now supported by the strength of Bidfood.”
