25+ Years of Insight, Innovation, and Impact
The Millennium Group is a family-owned business that we’re incredibly proud of, and we’ve been making waves in the fast-moving consumer goods industry for over a quarter of a century. We started in London, UK, and have really made our mark as leaders in wholesale and retail, offering a huge selection of both well-known and own-brand products right across the UK and to important markets overseas.
We’ve carefully chosen our product range to include everything from soft drinks and other beverages to sweets, snacks, British groceries, personal care items, baby products, pet supplies, household essentials, beers, wines, spirits, and specialty goods. With a smartly designed distribution center in West Thurrock and a well-placed cash-and-carry store in Barking, we’re perfectly set up to serve retailers quickly, accurately, and efficiently.
Our long experience in the industry and strong relationships with global brands mean we can spot changing consumer trends and offer our partners valuable insights that help them grow. At Millennium, we do more than just distribute products; we bring retail know-how, custom solutions, and a promise of top-quality service to every partnership we create.

Generations of Trust,
Built to Last.
The Millennium Group is a fantastic example of how a family’s shared dream can really take off. What started as a modest local business has blossomed into a lively, multi-division company that now operates worldwide. Our success is deeply rooted in our family values—things like trust, resilience, and sticking around for the long haul. These principles guide every choice we make and shape every connection we form, whether it’s within our own teams or with our partners. Because we’re still independently owned, we can be nimble and creative, all while keeping our core mission in mind.
Our family history pushes us to lead with honesty, foster strong, lasting partnerships, and make a real difference in every community we’re part of. At Millennium Group, family isn’t just a chapter in our story—it’s the very heart of why we’re so strong and successful.
The Road So Far
From Humble Beginnings to Global Reach
The Millennium story began with the launch of our first 80,000 sq. ft. Cash & Carry facility in Barking, quickly establishing itself as a trusted route-to-market for leading international brands across London and the Southeast.
We launched our Direct Delivery service, providing retailers and operators with a simple and reliable way to access products directly to their door, ensuring convenience, competitive pricing, and consistent supply from day one.
A bold new chapter unfolded with the opening of our state-of-the-art, 120,000 sq. ft. Distribution Centre. This milestone expanded our reach across the UK and laid the foundation for global ambitions.
International trade emerged as a core pillar of our business, strengthening our global presence and partnerships.
With operations spanning Europe, Africa, and the Middle East, we identified exciting opportunities in China, marking another stride in worldwide expansion.
Responding to growing demand from brand owners, we introduced M Direct - a flexible route to market offering competitive pricing for retailers and van operators.
We launched The Bottle Club with a simple mission: to bring passion and discovery to the world of drinks. What started as a small venture has grown into one of the go-to online destinations for exceptional selections of wine, spirits, beer & more.
We proudly celebrated 25 glorious years of growth, innovation, and partnerships built on trust.
