It supports 225 members, who collectively serve nearly 350,000 customers across the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One year later, it has reported buying power of more than \u00a34.5bn and represents around 14% of the UK wholesale market. By the end of 2026, The Wholesale Group expects to be the largest buying group in UK wholesale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Senior Supplier Briefing at Soho Hotel in London marked the company\u2019s first 12 months with a packed agenda over identical morning and afternoon sessions, under the theme \u2018United for Growth\u2019. Each session brought together senior individuals for two panel discussions, a series of updates from The Wholesale Group\u2019s leadership team and external insights from Food &amp; Drink Wholesale UK and data specialists TWC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jess Douglas, Managing Director, People &amp; Operations, The Wholesale Group, said: \u201cThe Senior Supplier Briefing underlined our commitment to transparency, partnership and creating long-term value across both retail and foodservice channels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt was a reminder not only of how we have come, but more importantly where we are going next. We have a target to reach \u00a35bn turnover as a group and we\u2019re aiming to get there through smarter use of data and AI, strategic member recruitment, ESG leadership and deeper collaboration with our members and supplier partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSuppliers play a critical role in our collective success, and these briefings allow us to align on priorities, discuss challenges openly and explore how we can continue to grow together in a rapidly evolving wholesale landscape.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"28066\" src=\"https:\/\/thewholesalegroup.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/SSB02-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28066\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thewholesalegroup.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/SSB02-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/thewholesalegroup.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/SSB02-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/thewholesalegroup.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/SSB02-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/thewholesalegroup.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/SSB02-600x400.webp 600w, https:\/\/thewholesalegroup.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/SSB02.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"28067\" src=\"https:\/\/thewholesalegroup.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/SSB03-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28067\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thewholesalegroup.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/SSB03-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/thewholesalegroup.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/SSB03-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/thewholesalegroup.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/SSB03-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/thewholesalegroup.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/SSB03-600x400.webp 600w, https:\/\/thewholesalegroup.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/SSB03.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>United for Growth<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jess Douglas opened each session by celebrating 2025 wins and setting out plans for 2026, before handing over to Tom Gittins, Managing Director \u2013 Retail, for an update on the retail business.
