TR22 Fresh Ideas for Autumn/Winter - Flipbook - Page 3
Fresh Ideas brochure
Welcome to our Fresh Ideas brochure, packed full of trends and products to help you freshen
up your food and drink selections as we head into the Autumn and Winter seasons. Rest assured,
we’re conscious of the challenges everyone is facing at the moment and doing the best we can
to have a reliable stock of products for you at competitive prices.
Following the hottest summer on record, which was also one of the driest in decades, the impacts
of climate change and the need to make more sustainable choices, wherever we can, is now more
front of mind than ever before. Throughout this brochure you’ll see that sustainability is important to
Thomas Ridley and whether you’re operating in the Cost, Hospitality or Retail sector, we care about
helping you to diversify your range, reach your green goals and offer the low-carbon options that
your customers are looking for.
For our Cost customers, we’re keeping our finger on the trends and are always looking for the best
products at the best price to help you meet your environmental and nutritional goals while staying
within budget. In addition, if you’re not already making the most of our recycling services, it’s worth
finding out more about how we can make your life easier and your business more sustainable.
For the Hospitality sector, supported by recent research into your customers’ drinking habits, we’ve
put together new products to support the low-alcohol or alcohol-free customer, plus an exciting
new French range to delight the wine connoisseurs out there. Sticking with current trends, (30% of
meat-eaters now identify as flexitarian) we have a broad range of quality plant-based meat
alternatives, sauces and snacks to help you embrace the power of plants on your menus.
In Retail, we’re working with local suppliers to highlight exciting new products and providing you
with ideas on how to retain and grow your customer base over the coming months. When it comes
to fine foods products, we’ve highlighted some of the newest ranges to tempt your customers with,
but make sure you check out our ever-growing range online on our dedicated page.
We’re always here to talk to you about the latest trends and product offerings.

Take a fresh look at Thomas Ridley and let us make
