How we run
From order capture at 6am to final mile delivery. See how we ensure accuracy and freshness using infrared probes and night-shift quality checks.
Reliability is a process, built on structure
Consistency does not happen by accident. Supplying fresh produce across London needs precision at every step. At Foodpoint, we combine the buying expertise of New Covent Garden Market with a structured warehouse workflow, so every order is accurate, fresh, and delivered on time.
Orders, locked in
06:00 to 00:00Most orders come through the Grownet app and land straight into one system. Requirements are captured instantly, and any special notes are logged so the warehouse team packs exactly what your site needs. If something is short due to seasonality, we contact you and agree on an alternative rather than guessing..
Daily buying
10:00Great supply starts with great sourcing. Our buyers review the day’s requirements against grade, size, and ripeness needs, then select the best available lines to match your menu. With stock rotating daily from growers and importers, we buy with consistency in mind, not just price.
Intake and quality control
17:00 to 00:00Every delivery is checked on arrival for quality, condition, and temperature. Chilled and frozen lines are verified to protect the cold chain, then logged into our monitoring system so storage stays stable around the clock. This is where we protect standards before anything reaches your order.
Picking and packing
17:00 to 02:00While London sleeps, our night shift picks orders by hand with care and attention to site preferences, such as avocado ripeness or potato sizing. Notes, labels, and quantities are checked before orders move to loading, helping reduce errors and keep service consistent.
The final mile
01:00 to 14:00Orders are loaded into pre-cooled vehicles and delivered on planned routes, so drivers learn your site, your team, and your drop routine. GPS and temperature monitoring give us visibility through to the door, supporting reliable commercial fruit and vegetable delivery across London.
