Meet the Team
Behind TickEat is a specialist team with deep roots in food and beverage, bringing together 25+ years of industry experience. We've spent our careers immersed in the categories that matter most, which means we understand not just the products, but the people, processes, and pressures that shape them.
Our team also includes two former buyers with specialist backgrounds in rail, airline, and foodservice catering. They've built long-standing relationships across the travel and leisure sector, and we draw on that network every day, both to educate and showcase brands looking to grow their presence and to support buyers navigating their sourcing decisions.
It's this blend of operational expertise and trusted relationships that lets us connect the right brands with the right buyers, time and again.
