Available exclusively to Channel Islands customers from Cimandis, the products include Koffman’s fries, Glenfields Foods burgers, Yarde Farm ice creams, La Lorraine doughnuts, Daily Dose juices and Greek food from Odysea.
Cimandis is the largest foodservice company operating across the Channel Islands, and it recently held its first Premier & Artisan trade show in Guernsey where several of the new ranges were on show with the help of more than 20 suppliers.
Gavin Scott, director of business development at Caterfood Buying Group, said: “We really appreciate our suppliers making the trip to Guernsey to demo their products, and the trade show was really well attended, with a lot of great conversations taking place. There’s nothing better than being able to talk to customers about the products and get their feedback there and then.
“The range of foods and drinks that Cimandis can supply to hotels and restaurants to offer their guests will now be greatly expanded, which will be great for the Channel Island’s tourism sector. We’ve also seen a rise in high-quality, gluten-free foods from suppliers, which is fantastic and makes catering for gluten-free customers so much easier.”
Cimandis supports many hospitality and independent establishments, from beach-side vendors to some of the best hotels across the Channel Islands – including delivering to Herm and Sark, where there are no cars allowed on the islands and deliveries are made by horse and cart!
Nigel Holliday, managing director of Cimandis, commented: “We’ve been doing a lot of work to refine and elevate our product offering over the last few months and we’re really excited by the quality of these new products. Naturally, our hospitality industry is so important to island life and we want to make sure that our customers have the best products in order to create the best experiences for their guests.”
