OUR EVENTS
Hunt's Food Group have a range of events throughout the year. From team events to days dedicated to bringing us closer to our suppliers, we're busy all year round! Take a look below to gain an insight into our biggest days of the year:
FEBRUARY
Hunt's Food Show, Somerset
One of the biggest trade events in the South. The Hunt’s Food Show is for one day only and brings together 158 food service and retail suppliers to showcase and launch new products, sample their ranges and offer great deals for our customers. It’s not one to miss!
MAY
Huntsfest, Dorset
HuntsFest is Hunt’s annual team party. The idea was born from members of the Company Advisory Group getting a little over-excited about glowsticks and lasers but mixing that with a vision and a little bit of planning and the entire Hunt’s Team enjoy an evening of festival shenanigans and fabulous music.
JUNE
Glastonbury Festival, Somerset
We have been working with Glastonbury Festival since 2013. We are the main supplier of frozen, ambient and butchery products at the festival. Supporting one of the biggest events in the UK demonstrates how versatile our business can be.
JUNE
Sherborne Golf Club
The Hunt’s annual golf day is a chance to enjoy a day of good golf and fine food after the end of a busy season. It’s some time for the team, our customers and suppliers to get together for a great cause, raise money for charity and (hopefully!) win some prizes on the day.
NOVEMBER
Open Farm Saturday
This is a great opportunity for the team and their families to socialise, enjoy tractor and gator rides, see the farm animals, walk their dogs, enjoy a train ride around Gartell Light Railway and share some food and drinks with colleagues.

This year we hosted our first colleague football tournament, where Hunt's colleagues from across the group and their families joined us for a day in the sun competing to be crowned the champions.

T20 Cricket
Every year a Hunts Food Group XI takes on a Compton House Legends XI at Over Compton based two miles from our Sherborne Head Office in a T20 match competing for the Hunts House Trophy.
