Restaurant supplier making space for 150 jobs at new Derby site

A Leicestershire food wholesaler is creating room for 150 jobs at a new Derby base.

Loughborough-based Ocean King is investing £5 million buying a 28,000 sq ft storage facility currently being built to the south of the city which should be ready this December.

The independent business is owned and run by managing director Steven Thai and his family and supplies fresh and frozen food to the restaurant trade across the UK. In recent months it has been hiring to meet rapid growth, and the new premises will be triple the size of its current HQ.
