Top Landmark award for East End Foods

East End Foods received dual recognition at Landmark Wholesale’s annual awards dinner, held in Leeds.

The West Bromwich-based Indian food specialist, with annual sales of more than £180 million, was adjudged member of the year and took the delivered depot prize for its Aston Cross branch.

Another double winner was AG Parfett & Sons, as leading own-brand member and top cash & carry depot (Stockport).

West Country operator Jones Food Solutions collected the out-of-home development member award.

Suppliers honoured for their contribution to the group throughout the year included Red Bull (top business partner), Premier Foods (business development and grocery), KP Snacks (out-of-home and impulse) Heineken (tobacco/licensed and depot business partner).

The central office employee of the year award went to Les Mohammed for developing the foodservice range.

Group managing director John Mills said: “Our awards are a real highlight in the Landmark calendar, providing the opportunity to recognise and reward outstanding performance by our members, suppliers and staff.

“Our business is built upon the hard work, commitment and fantastic working relationships created by individuals and businesses.”
