Hubbard joins buying group
UK: Hubbard Ice Systems, the Scotsman ice machines distributor, has joined the ENSE, the UK catering equipment and supplies buying consortium.
“We have been looking at ways to enhance the service we deliver to our distributor network,” said Simon Aspin, commercial director of Hubbard. “ENSE not only gives its dealer members major benefits, it also gives us a competitive advantage in terms of our routes to market.”
Hubbard’s own in-house research is said to have shown that it scores highly in terms of its dealer support, and that Scotsman is seen as one of the leading quality icemaker brands.
“Membership of ENSE will help us capitalise on the way the market sees both Hubbard and Scotsman,” says Aspin. “In addition, ENSE’s communications network will help us inform the dealer market about several new products we are launching over the coming months.”
