Cress Co is in running for top national award
A fine food distributor with a depot in Telford is in the running for a national award.
Cress Co has been named as a finalist for the Farm Retail Association’s prestigious Associate Member of the Year Award.
The Farm Retail Association connects and supports British farms in diversifying their businesses through farm shops, farmers' markets, and PYO enterprises.
Its awards celebrate the highest standards across these enterprises and the businesses that support and supply them throughout the country.
As the UK’s largest distributor of ambient and chilled retail fine foods, Cress Co supplies a range of British farms, farm shops, garden centres, delis, and food outlets.
With depots across the UK, including its Telford depot, and a dedicated fleet of dual-temperature vehicles, they’ve worked hard to build a reputation for reliability and service.
Joe Wall, founder and Managing Director of Cress Co, said: “To be recognised by farm retailers as a key part of the farm-to-fork journey is an achievement we value immensely. We’re fortunate to work with exceptional products from British farms, and it’s a privilege to bring the best of British produce to the public.”
Cress Co is also sponsoring the Small Farm Shop of the Year award where the finalists are Ardross Farm Shop in Fife, Castle Farm Shop in Kent, and Fordhall Farm Shop in Shropshire.
The awards ceremony is on Wednesday, March 12.
