Food and Drink - Hall & Woodhouse Business Partnerships

Acquiring Stock: Food & Drink

As a hospitality-led independent family brewer, we believe that your food and drink offer is crucial to your business, therefore we are dedicated to helping you create the right offer. Our Drinks Tie is fundamental to our business and it allows us to provide the enhanced level of support that Hall & Woodhouse Business Partners receive, compared to a free trade pub.

Drinks Tie

As part of the Business Partner Agreement you’ll be required to purchase all of your draught and packaged beers, lagers, ciders, wines, spirits, and soft drinks from Hall & Woodhouse. The Drinks Tie does not include tea, coffee or food. We work closely with our suppliers to provide a great range of drinks products for our Business Partners, and a full list of the available products and prices will be provided for you in the BP Agreement Price List.

Our Beer

Badger beer remains the golden thread that runs throughout our business, which is why you’ll only find our award-winning Badger beer in our own pubs. Your Business Development Partner will work with you to ensure you have the right beer on tap for your guests in your pub. As well as our hero beers, we also produce seasonal cask beers throughout the year with eye-catching POS materials to help you market them.

To support you and your team in looking after your beer in the best way possible, our Beer Quality Ambassadors will visit you 3 times a year to help ensure that your beers are always served in excellent condition. We will gift you a free firkin of Badger Best if you score 100% in each of your 3 annual visits.

Telesales

Our friendly and dedicated Telesales team are responsible for taking weekly Business Partner orders. The team have vast experience in the hospitality industry and are happy to make recommendations on products to suit your pub and guest type.

They will often communicate monthly product promotions to you and inform you of any available merchandise and point-of-sale to ensure you make the most of your product range.

Food Solutions

The food side of running a Business Partnership is entirely down to the Business Partner concerned, although we can support you with a recommended summary of food offers as well as discounts from our food suppliers Brakes.

We have partnered with Brakes to provide our Business Partners with a bespoke menu development solution which offers 30/40 high quality traditional pub favorites which have been fully spec’d and costed, with all the accompanying allergens information, to allow Business Partners to put together an interesting and robust food menu. In addition, there is a choice of menu designs included in the package, so designing and printing your menu is also easy. Whilst the solution is not relevant to all food pubs, it helps to establish a hassle free and consistent food offer, before branching out into something a little more challenging once a steady food trade is established.
