Dame Mary Berry Officially Opens RH Amar’s New Headquarters



Leading UK food distributor, RH Amar has celebrated the opening of its new headquarters in High Wycombe, with Dame Mary Berry joining colleagues and guests at a special lunch to mark the occasion.


Dame Mary Berry unveiled a commemorative plaque to officially open the new premises and celebrate the major milestone in the family-run business’s 80-year history.


Rob Amar, Managing Director of RH Amar, said:

“We were honoured to welcome Dame Mary Berry to officially open our new office and distribution warehouse. We’ve known Dame Mary for more than 20 years since we started distributing her dressings brand so it made the occasion even more special to celebrate this milestone with her. It was a wonderful occasion to bring colleagues together to celebrate everything that has gone into creating our new home.”

RH Amar’s new purpose-built headquarters provide increased warehouse capacity, new office space and enhanced facilities designed to support the company’s future growth ambitions.


The new site includes collaborative workspaces, extensive kitchen facilities, and a social hub called Henry’s Place, named in honour of Chairman Henry Amar.


The move follows a sustained period of business growth for RH Amar, with the company achieving double-digit revenue growth in each of the past five years.
