On Bastille Day, we're shining a light on one of our valued French customers πŸ‡«πŸ‡·

OphΓ©lie Trichereau is the Restaurant Manager at Petit Paris Restaurant in Edinburgh's Grassmarket, where the team is preparing for one of the busiest periods of the year as the city gets ready to welcome thousands of visitors for the Edinburgh Fringe.

In our latest customer testimonial, OphΓ©lie shares what she values most about working with Brakes Scotland, from access to a wide range of competitively priced products to the quality of our fresh produce and fresh meat, used throughout the year in French classics such as salmon terrine, coq au vin and bΕ“uf bourguignon.

Helping our customers make a difference in their communities πŸ’™

Brakes Scotland was pleased to support one of Emma Forbes' customers on the West Coast as they hosted a charity shinty match in aid of Mindnotdefeated, raising funds for people and families affected by Motor Neurone Disease (MND).

To help maximise the fundraising, we donated stock for the DMG Catering Glenfinnan chippy trailer, which served almost 200 fish suppers in just a few hours! 🐟🍟

Thanks to the generosity of the local community and businesses, Β£2,288.51 was raised for the charity.

Congratulations to everyone involved in making the day such a success! πŸ‘

Already missing last month's Scottish sunshine? Bring it back with the limited-edition IRN-BRU Ice Cream! 🍦

Bold, cheeky and unmistakably Scottish, it's the perfect seasonal addition to your menu. Whether you run a cafΓ©, visitor attraction or hospitality venue, it's a fun way to offer customers something a little different while stocks last.

During the heatwave, Derek Blaney from AG Barr treated our Newhouse depot colleagues to free samples as they finished their shifts. The Irn-Bru Ice Cream was a huge hit, with the iconic bucket hats and sunglasses proving just as popular! 😎🧑

We recently visited Fishers Hotel Pitlochry to meet with Head Chef Pavel Dumitru and Cluster General Manager Brian Wishart, alongside Key Account Manager Andrew Gibb, Fresh Meat Specialist Fraser Granell-Watson and Dundee Operations Manager Peter Malcolm.

With an international customer base and a busy events calendar including The Enchanted Forest and The Heartland Festival , Fishers Hotel needs a supplier that can deliver consistent quality throughout the year 🏨🌳

We spoke about menu ideas, from Scottish specialities to classic pub favourites, explored opportunities to expand the fresh meat range, and were delighted to hear how the service from our team has helped strengthen the relationship over the years.

Supporting the next generation of hospitality talent at Royal Ascot πŸ‡

Last month, Brakes Scotland was proud to work with Hub International as their Elite Ascot team travelled south to join Sodexo UK & Ireland Live! with some VIP service and kitchen professionals at the Ascot Racecourse, for the fourth year running.

The team brought together hospitality professionals from across Scotland, including tutors, college lecturers, students and employability graduates, giving people at different stages of their careers the opportunity to gain invaluable experience at one of the UK's most prestigious sporting events.

To help keep everyone fuelled for the long journey, we were delighted to provide a selection of Scottish favourites, including Highland Spring still and sparkling water, Taylors Snacks crisps, Tunnock's caramel wafers and Dean's shortbread 🚍πŸ₯€

We're proud to play a small part in initiatives that invest in the future of Scotland's hospitality industry. A huge thank you to Hub International for giving us the opportunity to be involved for another fantastic year!
