Case Study -
Orlando’s Fine Foods Ltd
Supplying high quality wine and food
Orlando’s Fine Foods Ltd (Orlando’s) is a unique retailer and wholesaler supplying wine and food inspired by the Tuscan and Sicilian roots of its founder and owner Alan Norchi. It is based in Plymouth with customers throughout South Devon and beyond.
The first incarnation of Orlando's began in 2001 with a mobile espresso and deli van in Buckinghamshire, which then evolved to include a cafe in Aylesbury. It was at this cafe that Keith Dale of Trusted Business Advisor became a regular customer, then a friend, then Orlando’s accountant.
Working with Trusted Business Advisors
At first, Orlando’s was a small business, and the management of it rather ad hoc. For example, Keith would receive a carrier bag full of sometimes scrappy receipts from which he would patiently prepare the accounts.
However, over the last 20 years or so the working relationship between Orlando’s and Keith and his team has evolved and strengthened. This also applies to Alan and Keith’s friendship - they have even run a cricket club together!
Currently, Trusted Business Advisor provides Orlando’s with the professional expertise and advice required to work through its business situations and problems, thus enabling Orlando’s to focus on the development of its core business.
What’s more, ‘’They do this in a prompt and professional manner. In a world of often brusque and careless service, Keith and his team have a sincerely friendly and helpful attitude, where no question is too silly, and it's fine to call if there’s the need’’.
Alan also considers Trusted Business Advisor to be excellent value for money, and he has ‘’no doubt that as Orlando's grows and evolves, Trusted Business Advisor will be instrumental in its success. Of all the business issues that keep me awake, our accounting needs will not be one of them’’.
