Supplier requirement and ordering procedure

All suppliers must complete a supplier questionnaire and submit
documentation to substantiate their food safety systems.
Suppliers are also audited by Gleneely Foods, which uses its own internal
audit criteria. There are no charges to suppliers for this.

Orders are placed with suppliers via email.
Where possible the company collects stock from its Irish farmhouse
cheesemakers.
The depot receives deliveries from 5am to 2pm, Monday to Friday.

Geographical spread

Gleneely Foods operates from a state of the art chilled and ambient
distribution facility in Kilcarbery Park in Dublin.

In Dublin, a next day delivery service is provided. All other areas are
serviced at least once per week.

Fleet size

The company operates a fleet that consists of six refrigerated vans.

Marketing support and services provided

The company does not produce an annual catalogue. It produces a listing
with prices throughout the year. New products can be added through the
year.

Introductory offers and promotions proposed by suppliers will be passed
on to its customers. Gleneely Foods encourages producers to visit its
customers. The company will call ahead to its customers to introduce the
producer. Information is available to suppliers on the sales performance of
their products.

The company is open to producers making presentations to Grace Ryan and
Michael Covitz.
