The Big Food Group

The Big Food Group

The Big Food Group was a large company in the UK. It was created in 2000 when the supermarket chain Iceland took over Booker Cash & Carry plc.

After various financial failures, it was purchased by Icelandic retail consortium Baugur in 2005, and split into:
* Retail: Iceland
* Wholesale: Booker Cash & Carry
* Foodservices: Woodward Foodservice
* Logistics: Expert Logistics

The property portfolio was spun out into a separate company called PropCo, for £213million, and then leased back. [citeweb|url=http://www.foodanddrinkeurope.com/news/ng.asp?id=56926-bfg-agrees-to|title=BFG agrees to Baugur bid|publisher=Food & Drink|date=20 December, 2004|accessdate=2008-04-06]
