Reids of Norwich was established in 2006 by our Chairman John Reid.

The company’s journey began in a modest setting – a small, converted garage – and the team consisted of only three individuals. With limited resources in the early stages trade was primarily centred around the import and distribution of chilled and frozen raw chicken and turkey products

The ambition was consistent and sustainable expansion. Following an increase in red meat and export sales it soon became apparent a larger and more permanent home would be needed and so in 2008 the existing head office on St. John Maddermarket in Norwich was acquired. As the business has grown so has the team. There are now over 20 people based in Norwich whilst others have been strategically added in locations such as Poland, Spain, and Ireland.

In addition to its organic growth, following acquisition in 2015 Reids of Norwich benefits from working alongside its affiliated businesses.
