developing our people in our specialist
businesses
Over the years, we have acquired a number of
smaller, specialist businesses, ranging from
Cimandis who provide Foodservice on the
Channel Islands to Elite Fine foods who supply
locally produced fresh produce to chefs in
England and Wales. Our approach has been to
facilitate their continued success by maintaining
a high degree of autonomy, enabling them to
retain their individualism and culture but also to
leverage the expertise within the existing larger
Bidfood business. Our Learning and
Development team have been carrying out
online training sessions for a very geographically
spread team of people managers, helping them
to develop better self-awareness and
communication skills. We've been coaching
individuals in personal effectiveness and it has
been rewarding to see the impact this training
has had.

Chain and Technical Services Director, and Steve Clarke, Managing Director,
Wholesale, were singled out for their commitment and support to the
hospitality sector and those in need during Covid - with recognition in the New
