The depot at Kilnhurst is now a housing estate. DBC now operate out of a large warehouse at Manvers, near Wath.

Hello to everyone in this group,

I am a project manager in ESS-FOOD and I am eagerly searching for history about our company, especially the history before the round of the century.
I have found this chat group and I can see that many old pictures are being shared of ESS-FOOD trucks from back in the day.
It would be great to receive some of your stories, if you had a family member or yourself can share what it was like and maybe share more pictures.

I am in charge of gathering all these interesting history stories and pictures in order to create a timeline and story about the company.
If anyone has anything, it would be great if you could send it to me on; mehha@ess-food.com

Thank you all in advance - regards Mette H. Petersson
