Purchasing policy and supplier requirements
The J D Wetherspoon plc supplier charter provides full details of the
minimum requirements for prospective suppliers in the ROI. This can be
viewed here: www.jdwetherspoon.ie
The company is interested in product quality, first and foremost.
Where there is an interest in sourcing, the company will forward details of
terms and conditions and distribution options to the supplier, then begin
price negotiations.
An EDI system is a requirement for orders.
The delivery schedule and shelf life requirements are product dependent.
Distribution providers
Distribution to ROI pubs is via a Dublin-based DHL hub or directly to pubs.
For food suppliers, Lynas Foods is the nominated foodservice provider and
distributor.
Dublin hub: DHL Supply Chain, Oak Road, Western Business Park, Dublin 12
