The first new 90,000 sq. ft site will be based in Glasgow and it is set to open in early Spring 2023. Aiming to commence trading in autumn 2023, Bidfood will also be opening a 160,000 sq. ft site in Bedfordshire in order to strengthen its service across the South East of England.

Mark Wood, chief operating officer at Bidfood said: “This is a really exciting time for the business, as we continue to grow our infrastructure to strengthen our support for customers. Both sites will enable us to operate from a high quality and modern facility which will alleviate pressure on existing depots in Scotland and the South East, as well as serve the communities in which they operate by providing jobs to local people.”

A third additional depot in the Midlands has also been commissioned, however, this will not be active until 2024.
