Founded in 2006, SureFoot Solutions clients have included hospitality businesses such as The Real Greek, Creams, Everyman Cinemas, St. Austell, Honest Burgers and Franco Manca.
Food Alert managing director, David Bashford, said: “The SureFoot team is well respected within the sector, its client base says it all, and the team shares our commitment to delivering a customer-first service, so this feels like the perfect fit.
“Managing standards of food hygiene and health & safety is vital for every hospitality business and I look forward to working with our new colleagues and clients to strengthen our existing customer offer.”
SureFoot Solutions’ managing director, Frances Tucker, added: “I am incredibly proud of the achievements SureFoot Solutions has made over the past 16 years, and am excited by this next step in our journey.
“Food Alert has been setting the standards of hospitality compliance for more than 30 years and this move is a positive development for both businesses, our team and clients as we continue to provide industry leading products and services across the sector.”
This is the third acquisition by Citation Group for its Food Alert compliance business in the past 18 months as it looks to continue to grow and improve its offering to the food and hospitality industry.
