WestCountry Food Holdings has been acquired by Kitwave marking a critical diversification of the group's product suite into the fresh produce category. This strategic acquisition complements the previous operation of M. J. Baker, creating a dense, multi-temperature service hub in the South West of England. By unifying the target’s high-heritage grower network with the group's national logistics framework, the organization constructs a comprehensive "one-stop-shop" platform for regional foodservice clients. The integration leverages the target's regional density to maximize route efficiency and procurement leverage across the South West.
