ROUNDTABLE / DISTRIBUTION
18
PANELISTS ON THE CATERING INSIGHT ROUNDTABLE INCLUDED:
How would you assess the relation-ship between suppliers and dis-tributors today? Have the dynamics changed since the recession?
David Riley: It is interesting that you say ‘since the recession’ because I think that when you go through recessions and orders are tight, everything gets a bit more aggressive in the market. But now that orders are fl owing quite a bit more freely, it is about how we hone and develop relationships as we move forward. We’re never going to please everybody, but we want to get it as right as we can. Everybody knows the varied history of relationships that Hobart in general has had with distributors going back in time. In 2003 we created Hobart Independent, which is a dedicated dealer business that has grown enormously over the years and been one
of the most successful things that we’ve done. We’re now on this path to move much more of our other turnover through the dealer channel, and we’re up to about 65% at the moment, which is quite an achievement. And it’s about how we make that diff erence to dealers as we move forward in the relationship.
Jack Sharkey: If you go back to the early 90s, when we were just coming out of the last recession before this one, there was a lot of exclusivity between dealers and suppliers. Th at progressed and the dealer and supplier landscape changed quite a bit. I think when we came into the last recession, there was a knee-jerk reaction from a lot of the manufacturers and they were looking for business everywhere, so they decided to do a lot more direct supply and kind of ignored what the contribution of
the distributor was. As we went deeper into the recession and business started to dry up, I think they started to realise – and I am being quite general here – that distributors have got close relationships with the clientele, and that forming strong partnerships with distributors is the right way forward.
Tim Taylor: Carrying on that point about the knee-jerk reaction of going direct, I think the problem is that some manufacturers have also gone about just giving everybody an account. It doesn’t matter what the dealer’s position is, they’ve just opened it up to everybody.
How exclusive can suppliers or distrib-utors realistically become though?
Tim Taylor: It’s a question of balance, isn’t it?

has taken you 5 years to get them onto a particular refrigeration manufacturer and then another dealer has come in and absolutely butchered the price and literally taken 4% or 5% to get the work. Th en when you speak to the sales
manager, he doesn’t even know who the dealer is. So how have they gone in there and done that? Th e manufacturer hasn’t then protected the dealer who’s been developing that customer and switching them onto its brand. I know manufacturers can’t necessarily say, ‘no, I’m not giving you an account, it’s completely exclusive’. It’s trying to get that balance. It is diffi cult.
David Riley: One of the ideas is to set up a second tier of dealers that buy off the other dealers. Th e trouble is I’ve never known anyone successfully run that.
Paul Gilhooly: I think it comes down to diff erentiation. And it is really important for suppliers to distinguish between the
DISTRIBUTION / ROUNDTABLE
If we get a client that we’ve been trading with for X number of years and they come to us and say we want a specifi c brand but it’s not a brand we deal with then we’d like to think we can get access to that brand rather than seeing our client disappear with potentially another dealer or competitor. So you want access to the other brands but I think there needs to be a balance there. It’s that fi ne line between manufacturers opening accounts too freely and sitting down with the distributor to fi nd out what is going on, getting a bit of background and understanding what the deal is before they open an account. And we’ve lost clients through this situation – you’ve developed a client over a long period, it

Catering Insight’s celebration of the year for the UK catering equipment sup-ply chain goes from strength to strength. The fourth year of the gala cer-emony on 29 November 2018 saw a record 230 senior industry executives head to the spectacular Bloomsbury Ballroom, on Bloomsbury Square in
Central London. The industry itself votes on the outcome of 16 awards, with distribu-tors choosing the supplier category victors and suppliers picking the distributor win-ners. A bubbly reception and a luxury three course dinner are staple elements of the Catering Insight Awards, with plenty of time to network during the main section of the night as well as the now-infamous After-Party, which last year saw over 100 revellers celebrate into the early hours at the nearby Sway Bar.
