“It’s been brilliant meeting the incredible Adams team and soaking up the culture. I’ve already dived straight into my first supplier meeting, which felt great. There is certainly a lot to learn as I settle in, but I am absolutely buzzing to take it all on and drive some serious momentum in the category,” she added.
Bestway Wholesale acquired Adams Foodservice in 2024 as part of its expansion in catering/foodservice.
