CFBG Member Turner Price is up for Grocer Gold Award 2025
Could Turner Price be the Grocer's Regional Wholesaler of the Year?
The last year has been an incredibly busy one for Turner Price, based in Hull, since joining Caterfood Buying Group in July 2024. However, the business has continued to grow and achieve great things during this time. Everyone at Turner Price has worked exceptionally hard to make this transition period a success and the business shows no signs of slowing down!
Focusing more than ever on what it can offer its customers, this has included introducing a Development Chef, Neil Moore-McCarthy, expanding their Cater Expo events into new locations, and introducing a new online ordering platform and app. In addition, the range and quality of products now available to Turner Price as part of the Caterfood Buying Group are setting the business apart from its competitors.
The Grocer Gold Finalist news comes just after Turner Price announced the appointment of four of its senior leadership team to the board of directors.
Steve Potter has been promoted from Operations Controller to Operations Director, Tracey Shillito, formerly Head of Sales North, and Jason Watkins, previously Head of Sales South, have both been appointed as Sales Directors, and Tom English has also been promoted to Digital & Marketing Director, having previously held the role of Head of Marketing & E-Commerce.
From Left to Right: Craig Andrews (Commercial Director), Jason Watkins (Sales Director), Paul Brittain (Managing Director), Tracey Shillito (Sales Director), Tom English (Digital & Marketing Director), Steve Potter (Operations Director) make up the Turner Price Board of Directors.
Phil Atyeo, Managing Director of Caterfood Buying Group, said:
“Turner Price has gone from strength to strength since joining Caterfood Buying Group and to be shortlisted in the Grocer awards is fantastic recognition for the whole team.
We’ve also been thoroughly impressed by the senior leadership team over the last ten months and fully support these very well-deserved internal promotions. As a business, Turner Price has an enormous amount of potential and getting the right leadership structure in place is going to be vital for supporting that future success and growth, so this is really fantastic to see.”
The Grocer Gold Awards 2025 will take place on Tuesday July 8th at the Royal Albert Hall in London.
