WILD FORK WEST LTD

What WILD FORK WEST LTD does

Wild Fork West Ltd is a privately held UK event catering company founded in 2015 by Michael Holloway, operating from Semington, Wiltshire, with a registered office at St. Edith's Marsh. The company serves three core customer segments: weddings, corporate events, and private parties, with a regional focus covering Wiltshire, Somerset, and the broader South West of England within a 60-mile radius of Semington. Its stated capacity allows up to four events per day, and management indicates it has catered hundreds of events since inception. The company is founder-owned with no external funding, parent company, or holding structure disclosed.

The company's product offering spans three primary service lines: bespoke wedding catering with seasonal menu design, corporate hospitality, and private party catering. In 2026, Wild Fork West launched a Curated DIY Wedding Package aimed at broadening accessibility to a price-conscious segment, alongside new 2026 Corporate Menus and signature dishes such as Roasted Hake. Underlying technology is limited to operational tooling — notably Monday.com for CRM — with no proprietary platform, no AI/ML capability, and no data flywheel disclosed. Quality is delivered through a small core team (1–10 employees) supplemented by freelance support, including Head Chef Andrew Rolf (joined 2020) and Front of House Manager Vicki (joined 2025). The company is B Corp certified, indicating formalised sustainability and ethical-operating credentials.

Wild Fork West generates revenue on a per-event basis, with pricing varying by guest count, menu complexity, and service requirements. Distribution is anchored by venue partnerships and recommendations, including roles as a recommended caterer at Euridge Manor, Pennard House, and West Barn Lodge (newly added in August 2025). The model is asset-light: no owned venues, modest headcount, and freelance staffing that flexes with event demand. Revenue per event is highly variable (a few hundred pounds for small private parties to five-figure sums for large weddings), and the business carries wedding-seasonality risk inherent to its dominant segment mix.
