Wilson Vale co-founders honoured in business listing


Andrew Wilson and Carolyne Vale, co-founders of independent catering company, Wilson Vale, have appeared in The Fantastic 50, a listing of the leading self-made business people in the Midlands, compiled and published by Insider business magazine.

The couple, who established Wilson Vale in 2002 on £50K capital and went on to grow a £23m business employing 700 people, appear on the listing alongside other high profile individuals such as the fashion designer, Sir Paul Smith, and Sir Peter Rigby, chairman and chief executive of Rigby Group.

Andrew Wilson said, “It is wonderful to receive recognition like this from the wider business community. I can honestly say that Carolyne and I don’t see ourselves as fantastic but we do count ourselves very fortunate to have such a fantastic team around us!

'Our entire business rests on the calibre of our people who genuinely love what they do so our success and business growth is entirely down to their passion and commitment.”
