Discover Nation Wilcox

Founded by Neil Nation in 1978, the Company specialises in the design, development, implementation and deployment of business oriented software applications for the wholesale food service distribution and fresh produce industry. 

Now based in our purpose-built development centre offices in Sutton Coldfield, we provide a total and complete service associated with the implementation of our systems, including the supply of computer, network and peripheral equipment as required.

The team at Nation Wilcox are continually developing and improving our software applications to take advantage of the latest hardware and software innovations, as well as ensuring that our systems meet the evolving needs of the industry and all legislative requirements. Indicative of this has been the recent launch and deployment of AI assisted and automatic entry of customer telephone voice recorded and email orders.

Nation Wilcox has been supporting the wholesale food service industry for over 45 years, now led by Neil's son, Andrew, who has worked for the company since 1986. More recently, the third generation of the Nation Family, Andrew's daughter Georgia and his son Jack. have now both joined the business.

On the rare occasions we have any problem or a general question about the software it is always dealt with promptly.
