Due to the recent issues surrounding Brexit, it is regrettable that there will be some impact to pricing and availability of certain products from 11th January 2021.

Below are the product lines currently affected with alternative product options; whilst these products are still available, the alternatives highligted are more cost effective and will ensure chef’s menus are managed accordingly.

idc will continue to work closely with our supply partners to source locally grown seasonal produce throughout the year and ensure that we are able to provide the most competitive pricing and best quality products within the category.
