Servicing customers in the catering and hospitality industries; and door-to-door consumer deliveries.

Red Star Wholesale Catering Services (formerly known as Checkers Food Services) provides a food delivery service to customers in the catering and hospitality industries. It started door-to-door deliveries to consumers via its e-commerce platform in 2019 and uses the Group’s buying power and distribution network to deliver quality products to customers’ doors at everyday prices.


Brand overview

Red Star Wholesale Catering Services started operating at the Group’s Epping Distribution Centre in 2011. This business-to-business brand started out by delivering a wide selection of low-price, quality products to South Africa’s hospitality and catering industry and now delivers to everyday consumers. 

Leveraging the Group’s bulk-buying power and centralised distribution network, Red Star Wholesale Catering Services distributes products to its customers by making use of dedicated warehouses and logistical fleets.

Red Star Wholesale Catering Services offers world-class service and free delivery of an extensive collection of more than 8 000 quality products, including our exclusive CaterClassic range. Services are available to chefs, restaurants, hotels, hostels, guesthouses, caterers, redistributors, industrial kitchens and the everyday consumer.

How we are adding value: Our business-to-consumer solution services customers outside of the Checkers Sixty60 and store-based footprint, with one- to twoday delivery lead times for outlying areas.
