ABC Food Service srl

What ABC Food Service srl does

ABC Food Service srl is an Italian privately held company (Società a responsabilità limitata) headquartered in Frosinone, Lazio, that operates a Cash and Carry wholesale food and beverage e-commerce platform at abcfoodservice.it. From a single operational site on Via S.S. 155 per Fiuggi, the company distributes food, beverages, spirits, wines, beers, household goods, and cleaning supplies to HORECA professionals (restaurants, bars, cafes, hotels, caterers) and individual consumers in Italy and selected European markets (United Kingdom, Sweden, Poland). The storefront supports eight languages and four currencies (EUR, GBP, PLN, SEK), positioning it as a cross-border online cash-and-carry rather than a domestic-only operator.

The platform organizes its catalog into ten main categories — Acqua, Alimentari, Bevande, Birre, Dolci e Snack, Liquori, Pasta Farina Riso, Prodotti per la Casa, Prodotti per la pulizia, and Vini e Bollicine — spanning everyday staples through premium alcoholic beverages and non-food consumables. Pricing is unit-based with no membership or subscription requirement; a 10% first-order discount is offered to newsletter subscribers, and the company advertises 24/48-hour delivery and a 14-day return policy. Customer support is delivered via phone and WhatsApp. Distribution is exclusively direct-to-consumer through the company's own e-commerce site; no physical retail storefronts or third-party marketplace presence is disclosed.

The business model is transactional one-time purchase sales of physical goods with no subscription, licensing, or marketplace take-rate layer. No external funding, parent company, subsidiaries, acquisitions, patents, or management team details are publicly disclosed, and no revenue figures have been reported. The company is operated as an independent, privately held single-site business with European online reach.
