Booker brings value to the fore in new foodservice-focused pricing strategy
Booker has announced the launch of a major price investment initiative, with a renewed focus on value for caterers, chefs, foodservice operators and hospitality venues.
The wholesaler’s ‘Value Hero’ campaign is designed to give Booker customers the products that matter to them most, at an outstanding price point.
Running throughout the course of 2026, the campaign focuses on key profit-driving lines across multiple categories – both branded favourites and Booker own brand trusted lines. There will be 221 products under the scheme at launch, including essentials such as milk, chicken, bacon, napkins and blue roll.
The initiative represents a major push focusing on Booker’s commitment to bringing value on essentials, staples and best-selling lines, as part of the wholesaler’s pledge to support customers all year round.
Visually, Value Hero will be brought to life from foyer to shelf with distinctive new branding to signpost included products. It will be implemented across all 190 branches, on Booker’s website, and across all marketing communications and digital channels, ensuring clear communication to customers and encouraging new customer sign-ups. Full branch takeovers will help highlight the proposition – from car park banners, bollards and posters to freezer vinyls, pallet wraps and shelf edge tickets.
Sheila Gallagher, Booker’s Chief Commercial Officer, said: “With this investment, we’re doubling down on our commitment to quality, value, service and ensuring our foodservice customers can access the products they use the most, at prices that support their profit margins.
“We’ve listened to customer feedback and are responding to the changing needs of the sector. It’s a challenging marketplace with cost pressures from all angles, and we’re here to support our customers throughout the year – from pubs and restaurants to chip shops, takeaways and cafés. They’re busy running wonderful businesses, so we want to make purchase decisions as easy as possible – with Value Hero we’re assuring them they are getting outstanding value on purchases that work the hardest for them, strengthening our pricing position to give customers consistently competitive prices.”
Sheila continues: “The priority for Value Hero is to reinforce and demonstrate that Booker delivers long-term value, choice and service and is the place to find trusted, quality, reliable products all year round. Our customers can purchase from us confident in the knowledge they’re getting value for money in their trolley at a time when every saving counts. Colleagues in branches and our representatives on the road will be on hand to talk customers through the scheme to ensure they understand how it benefits them.
“We’re a strong partner for all foodservice operators, caterers and chefs. We want our customers to rely on us to help them remain competitive and profitable, so they can focus on business growth and successful customer experiences.”
