Opportunities for Irish food and drink suppliers

          BaxterStorey Ireland focusses on sustainable, locally sourced, seasonal
          fresh produce.
          The company actively seeks to work with small, local, independent
          producers and growers that have exciting, new, innovative products to
          offer.


         Purchasing policy and supplier requirements

          Suppliers should be aware that quality, value and service are extremely
          important to BaxterStorey Ireland, who look to work in partnership with
          their supply base.

          The company performs supplier audits, usually on an annual basis.  Audit
          frequency is dependent upon the risk category.
          The purchasing function is managed locally by Culinary Director, Trevor
          Lawless, and tenders are issued as and when required.
          BaxterStorey Ireland has a policy of nominating multiple suppliers for each
          food category.
          Ordering is normally completed online.


         Distribution providers

          BaxterStorey Ireland works with a national, specialist food distribution
          partner.


         Advice to new suppliers

          Approaches from potential new suppliers are welcomed.  They should email
