Sysco is committed to supporting customers to create healthier and more sustainable menus, from the way ingredients are sourced and produced to their handling through the supply chain.

Stuart Smith, merchandising director at Sysco GB, said: “We have unique expertise in fish, with M&J’s long-established reputation for sourcing the best of the catch and Brakes’ unrivalled scale and foodservice knowledge, providing customers access to an incredible foodservice fish proposition.

“While it’s fantastic that we’ve been awarded Foodservice Wholesaler of the Year for the past nine years, we are committed to continuing to build the category, bringing customers new, exciting and sustainable fish options that will enhance any menu.”

Brakes and M&J Seafood have continued to ‘innovate’ in the seafood category, including introducing new MSC British coley, Jersey MSC lobster and converting all breaded plaice to MSC certified in the past year.
