M&B names Epta as top refrigeration contractor

Phil Rowe, M&B area building manager presents the award to Louise Metcalfe at Epta UK’s southern premises in Ringwood, Hampshire

UK: Mitchells and Butler, the Midlands based pub company, has named Epta UK as Refrigeration Contractor of the Year 2018.

The award was in recognition of the dedication and effort from the teams across Epta Service and Sales & Projects. Epta were shortlisted for the award and chosen by directors across M&B for the effective account management and service delivery.

While Epta UK has historically provided commercial refrigeration solutions for the grocery-retail sector, since the acquisition of Cold Service in 2014 the company has become increasingly involved within the food service sector.

Established in 1898, Mitchells & Butlers operates around 1,700 managed pubs, bars and restaurants throughout the UK. 

“All of the teams that work on this account are delighted at receiving recognition for their efforts to drive the effectiveness of this partnership forward and improve the service we deliver to our customers,” said Louise Metcalfe, key account manager at Epta Cold Service.
