Wilson Vale pick up £750,000 one-year Lane End Conference Centre contract

Wilson Vale has picked up a £750,000 one-year contract with Lane End Conference Centre in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire.

Having started work with the centre in September, Wilson Vale has deployed a team of 12 to offer dining options across the day and an extensive hospitality service.

The contract will see it cater for up to 150 daily delegates as well as the venue's staff at the training and conference centre, set within the 26 acre site in the Chilterns.

Alan Beddie, managing director of Wilson Vale, said: "Our portfolio of quality venues continues to grow, now representing approximately 20% of our business, with the remainder in the B&I and independent education sectors.

"Our focus, as always, is on providing high levels of support and commitment to our clients. We are working collaboratively with our new client at Lane End Conference Centre to enhance the food and service experience for all at this impressive venue that has a long and well-established history and reputation."

Mike Gough, operations director at Lane End Conference, added: "The quality of food at a venue has to be on par with all of the other elements as the impact great food has on reputation, client loyalty and retention cannot be underestimated. This latest investment in our catering operation is about providing the very best for our clients and delegates."
