BWG Foodservice has announced that – with its current trajectory – it expects sales to reach a quarter of a billion euro (€250 million) in 2025.
The announcement coincides with BWG Foodservice winning the National Foodservice Supplier of the Year award for the second year in a row, at the Catex 2025 hospitality exhibition at the RDS this week.
BWG Foodservice registered sales of €219 million in 2024, marking an 8% increase on 2023 – and against the backdrop of ongoing pressures across the food and hospitality industry.
The continued expansion of BWG Foodservice’s nationwide reach drove growth, particularly where it attracted a double-digit percentage increase in customer numbers and secured a number of significant supply contracts.
The business’s current pipeline suggests that it is on track to hit the €250 million sales milestone in 2025, which will mean that it will have doubled its revenue in just four years, having recorded sales of €126 million in 2021.
Looking at predicted trends across the food sector, BWG Foodservice is forecasting another major shift towards healthy eating, as demonstrated by a major upsurge in the consumption of açaí products.
In response, BWG Foodservice has introduced a new açaí offering through an existing exclusive partnership with Sambazon, whereby all açaí products are ethically sourced and hand-harvested by local farmers, as well as certified as organic and Fairtrade.
‘Very Strong Momentum’
Commenting, the foodservice director at BWG Foods, Ricky O’Brien, said, “We continue to see very strong momentum across our nationwide foodservice business, driven primarily by our focus on delivering food solutions that enhance the competitiveness of our customers, both in terms of quality and value.
“The business has benefitted from an accelerated growth trajectory, fuelled by its ability to leverage the power and resources of the broader BWG platform, making it one of the highest-performing foodservice operators over the last number of years.”
O’Brien mentioned the various headwinds facing the food and hospitality industry, marked by many recent business closures across the country.
He said, “The sector has faced a multitude of pressures threatening the viability of many of its businesses, however, we remain hopeful that the government will act sooner than anticipated in relation to its VAT reduction commitment, as this will have a positive impact in supporting the sector, which plays a critical role in the economic and social fabric of this country.”
