Lana is the Deputy Managing Director at Woods Foodservice, a Confex member for over 30 years. The London based wholesaler, now also delivering to Brighton, Bristol, Birmingham, and Manchester, is the primary choice for leading chefs in the premium end of the sector, for general and specialist, ambient, chilled, frozen and fresh produce products.

Customer care is paramount to Woods and it’s notable success. Dedicated Client Account and Support Specialists endeavour to guarantee complete customer satisfaction at all times. This all starts with the supplier base, a large number of which service them through Confex.

Lana’s aim as part of the Confex board is to help other members understand the real potential the buying group has to offer to wholesalers, along with sharing knowledge, best practices, and support, in order for members to move together and work as one. As a mother of young twin girls, and a female lead within the industry, Lana has a passion for ensuring the growing number of women working in wholesale, particularly in senior positions, are well represented. Her place on the board is another channel to allowing her to champion this.
