Colchester, Essex, UK: Pilgrim Foodservice has officially opened its new depot in Colchester. It will enable Pilgrim Foodservice to expand its operations, ensuring more efficient deliveries of its products and services across Essex, Suffolk, and London.

Charles Bateman, managing director of Pilgrim Foodservice said: “The positive customer feedback we’ve received since the depot started operating reflects the dedication of our Colchester team, and the ribbon-cutting ceremony felt like the perfect way to celebrate this exciting new chapter.”

One long-standing customer said: “The new Colchester depot has significantly improved how we purchase our stock. The quality and freshness of the products are second to none, and we’ve noticed that all of our deliveries are arriving earlier which is great for us.”

Pilgrim Foodservice supplies a wide range of products, from fresh produce and pantry essentials to premium meats from the company’s in-house butchery, C.J. Butchers. The company delivers these products to independent restaurants, hotels, and cafés across East Anglia, the East and West Midlands, Yorkshire and the Humber, and London.
