Transgourmet

What Transgourmet does

Transgourmet Polska Sp. z o.o. is a B2B foodservice distribution company headquartered in Poznań, Poland, operating nationwide (ogólnopolska dystrybucja) since 2015 and serving the HoReCa (Hotels, Restaurants, Catering) sector and collective catering establishments. The company employs approximately 734 people across sales, logistics, and customer-facing operations, combining dedicated field sales representatives with digital ordering infrastructure including the E-sklep e-commerce platform and the Aplikacja Mobilna Transgourmet mobile application. Its product assortment spans fresh produce, frozen foods, meat and deli, fish and seafood, convenience products, and a four-tier private label portfolio (TG Premium, TG Quality, TG Economy, Topseller) that addresses different price-quality requirements of professional kitchens.

The business model is built around transactional B2B distribution revenue, with quotes negotiated based on client relationships and order volumes rather than publicly disclosed pricing. Distribution is executed through an owned professional delivery fleet supported by modern foodservice logistics centers and an auxiliary transport equipment rental service (PŚT) that handles the last-mile physical handoff to client sites. The company operates the Instytut Kulinarny Transgourmet, a culinary training facility featuring cooking stations, barista/bartending stations, a conference room, and an auditorium, which functions as both a customer-development and category-education asset.

Transgourmet Polska is privately held as a Polish limited liability company (Sp. z o.o.) and is operationally intertwined with Selgros — a related retail and cash-and-carry brand — sharing a corporate employer identity, Poznań headquarters, and overlapping logistics infrastructure. Marketing and customer engagement span LinkedIn, YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram channels, HoReCa trade fairs, and the company website. No funding rounds, parent-company ownership chain, public revenue figures, or M&A activity are disclosed in the available source material.
