Q Catering offers an ever-increasing range of high-quality grocery, chilled and frozen food products, from local and national suppliers. Tony leaves Kent Frozen Foods (KFF) to join Steve Clarke, Q Catering’s managing director and his team during an extensive period of growth.
Tony left KFF after 18 years of service where he launched various initiatives and headed up a six-person team. Before that he was in similar roles at Brakes for over a decade.
Commenting on his appointment Tony said: “Getting to know the ins and outs of the company and existing clients over the past few weeks has been interesting and rewarding. Q’s customer base is based on years of loyalty and respect, so it’s a great bunch to be working with. This role allows me to do what I enjoy most, working with good suppliers, high-quality products, and creating stronger working partnerships.
“A focus of mine will be to introduce new, innovative products to our clients, particularly within the independent sector, to continuously improve our offering. The company already has roots in local produce from Kent, particularly through its Produced in Kent membership, so I look forward to working more closely with the team there.”
In his new role Tony will head up the procurement, marketing and supply chain teams, introducing more structure to the business, helping to improve efficiencies and relationships with suppliers.
