ABOUT US & FAMILY HISTORY

Alan Froud Limited is a family run business that was first established back in 1970 by Alan & Audrey Froud trading as Alan Froud Wholesale before we later became limited in 2008.

How it started

It all started with Audrey delivering door to door selling home-grown produce. This proved to be very successful and over time the opportunity to open a green grocers in Wimborne arose alongside the running of the wholesale business which to date is still on the original site at Kings Lane, Woodlands.

Wholesale

Whilst the original shop in Wimborne and then its later relocation to Crossroads Nursery in Woodlands are now memories the wholesale side of the business has vastly continued expansion over the years.

Current Day

Fast forward to the present day and Alan Froud Limited trades now in not only Fresh Produce but Potatoes, Prepared Produce, Solid Fuel & Dry Goods for the takeaway establishments.

Family Run

The current proprietor is Barry heading into his fourth decade at the helm. Alongside him is wife Sharon who has supported him and worked for the business for 35 years. The business really does include a majority of the family with Tom, Natalie and Kelly involved also.

Passing the torch

This means we are now heading into our third generation of family within the business with a fourth generation within the wings. (You are never too young to learn the ropes!)

Pride

We pride ourselves on providing excellent produce, competitive prices and good customer service which is only achieved with the support of the fantastic team. From preparation operatives to drivers our operation is such a team effort. Every enquiry is welcomed, we look forward to hearing from you.

Dry Goods

We recently launched the dry goods side of our company back in September 2014 run by Kelly and Michael in the hope to offer our chip shop customers a more comprehensive service.

FRUIT & VEGETABLES

Fruit & Vegetable products are sourced and imported from all around the world to be able to offer top quality and out of season availability.

We have been working with our suppliers for years who are experts in this field.

Enquiries are welcomed to supply all types of businesses from Shops, Sandwich Bars, Farm Shops, Restaurants, Pubs and Bed & Breakfasts.

We stock a general range of produce for everyday requirements but should you be looking for something a little more specialist please get in contact.

We can always try and source if they are readily available, we enjoy a challenge!

SOLID FUEL AND TRANSPORT

Another string to our bow is that we can supply pre-packed bags of solid fuel to the retail trade and domestic users.

Our range is simple but effective and we are sure to stock a product fit for your needs.

Bag sizes are offered in 10kg, 20kg & 25kg bags depending on variety. The fuel we supply is sourced and bagged in Mid-Wales using premium British coals.

We stock Kindling Wood and Netted Logs and no order is too small to consider.

Our delivery drivers are happy to help wherever possible and will put your fuel delivery in a convenient location so no need for you to struggle with heavy bags.

Call now for next day delivery Monday to Friday.

In our fleet of vehicles we operate articulated lorries which collect our potatoes and other goods from across the UK.

In doing this with our own transport

we have control of movement especially in colder weather. Whilst travelling to load we can also offer very competitive rates should you have any haulage requirements.

Please call and speak to our transport manager Barry, we do have smaller vehicles also so we may just be able to assist.

PREPARED PRODUCE

The site operates a fully equipped specialist prepared produce centre which in 2012 gained accreditation in Salsa Food.
