JJ Foodservice is to continue its B2C model on a permanent basis following the relaxation of lockdown measures.
Introduced during the pandemic as a stop gap, JJ Home offered the foodservice wholesaler’s range of prodcuts to households, with more than 30,000 homes supplied over the three-month period.
How JJ Foodservice has adapted during the coronavirus
However, due to its popularity it has relaunched as a permanent fixture but now with a 60% bigger product range, with customers being offered more than 500 food and drink items delivered to their doors.
“As the UK enters its fourth month of lockdown, people are adapting to new ways of life”, said chief product officer for JJ Foodservice, Sezer Ozkul. “Consumers are shopping less frequently, buying bigger packs and using more private labels to make savings. These trends are set to continue.”
