Notes to editors:
Blueheath is a wholesaler of groceries to convenience stores in the #16.8
billion UK grocery wholesale sector. The Group sells and arranges the
distribution of approximately 3,500, primarily ambient, product lines to over
5,000 independent and multiple retail and leisure outlets within the UK.
Blueheath's innovative technology-driven business model is founded on the basic
principles of stripping out unnecessary supply chain costs and overheads and
passing on financial and operational benefits to customers. This enables
Blueheath to offer customers a wholesale delivery service of groceries at close
to Cash & Carry prices.
Blueheath achieves cost savings in three ways:
1. Operating on low stock levels through the use of sophisticated, proprietary
stock prediction technology.
2. Using spare distribution capacity through its partnership with British
Bakeries Ltd and other operators.
3. The extensive use of process automation to minimise administration costs.
