About Us

Established in 1986

TOMSON (Buxton) Ltd is a family owned and run business that has been established since 1986 and has become a major supplier of fruit and vegetables to the Derbyshire and Peak District area.

Malcolm and Debby Thompson set up the business in 1986, when they bought a previous fruit and veg shop here on Hardwick St, Buxton. With 12 years previous experience between them, they began to grow the business.

As their business grew, so did the premises and staff. In 2006, Tomson moved to it's current site at Rockhead Business Park, Buxton. As of February 2017, the warehouse is being extended to be even larger.

​

Since the business was launched, it has grown from a small scale enterprise employing only 2 drivers to now, a valued team of over 30 staff.

Tomson have gone from being a small fruit and veg only store on the high street to a large wholesaler, supplying much more than just fruit and vegetables. Our range covers all cheese and dairy, dried goods and locally sourced products.

Over the last ten years we have diversified from being a secondary fruit and vegetable wholesale company to a primary importer with contacts across Europe and the UK.
