Best Food Logistics has been appointed the supply chain partner for Slim Chickens, further strengthening its position as the leading provider of foodservice logistics solutions to the UK’s best loved and growing restaurant brands.
Slim Chickens is an US-founded fast-casual restaurant chain that operates in the UK, specialising in southern-inspired fried chicken. Operated by the Boparan Restaurant Group, a subsidiary of the 2 Sisters Food Group, the chain is famous for its buttermilk-marinated chicken tenders, fresh wings, and variety of handmade dipping sauces.
The partnership will see Best Food Logistics provide nationwide distribution and supply chain services to the rapidly expanding quick-service and US-founded restaurant brand, supporting its continued growth across the UK.
The successful onboarding follows a seamless integration process delivered collaboratively by both teams, ensuring continuity of supply and service from day one.
Operating the UK’s largest shared customer, fully nominated, multi-temperature food distribution network, Best provides supply chain solutions for many of the UK’s best-known Hospitality brands – including Taco Bell, KFC, Pret A Manger, ASK Italian, Nando’s, Zizzi, Burger King and Pizza Hut.

Paul Whyte, Managing Director of Best Food Logistics, said:
“We are delighted to welcome Ranjit and team Slim Chickens to our growing portfolio of customers. Operating a restaurant requires confidence in the supply chain and every delivery matters – providing exceptional product availability with deliveries arriving on time differentiates Best, and it fuels our customers growth. We look forward to a long term, thriving partnership with Slims.
