“We have been working in partnership with Enterprise Foods for a number of years on both retail and wholesale customers, we have always found the support of the field staff very good and have built good relationships with the representatives of Enterprise Foods on a national and regional level.
As the desire for local suppliers continues to grow we have had many diverse conversations with them about several projects across a number of businesses – all positive”

“Thank you for your support with the 1500 topped cupcakes for the BP event last week. I appreciate it was an unusual request with many challenging dynamics but as ever you and Enterprise Foods supported in a most professional manner and delivered to our exact requirements. The product was tasty and had the look and feel we required and was delivered the day before the event meaning everything went smoothly. Once again thank you for support as ever – we throw you many challenges and you deliver.”
