As Britain’s leading foodservice wholesaler, Brakes has been serving chefs across the country for more than 60 years. Like the fantastic nominees for the MCA Hospitality Awards, we share a passion for food and innovation, always working to find the next food trend or identify the products that make a difference to how kitchens operate.

The chef is always at the centre of our plate, and our extensive range of award-winning products is designed to provide a comprehensive solution to any customer’s needs, helping them to navigate some challenging times, create delicious dishes or simply to save some time. From everyday to premium, our tiered range of Sysco products is reinventing own label, all backed with Sysco’s guarantee of quality assurance.

Our insight-driven approach, supported by our experienced brigade of development chefs allows us to identify the products that meet customers’ needs, creating menu standout and delivering operational efficiency. All delivered with a fast and flexible service, on an increasingly efficiency fleet, including a range of electric vehicles, across a nationwide network.

As part of Sysco, the world’s leading foodservice company, our purpose is to connect the world to share food and care for one another. With a focus on playing our part in society, we work with local and national charities, including with our own Meals & More charity, distribution charities and other local organisations to help support the communities where we operate.

We know how hard tonight’s nominees have worked to create some memorable dishes and we wish them all the best of luck!
