Steve Tate, operations manager for MT Globex, said the much-needed stock was destined to replenish supermarkets across the country before it was stolen.
The 40-year-old said the burglars struck the business between 1am and 1.30am on Friday, March 20.
The gang also stole CCTV recoding equipment in a bid to hide their identity during the heist.
Both the trailers have since been recovered – including one in West Bromwich, but were emptied of its contents.
A £500 cash reward has been put on offer for any information which led to the return of the trailer and had a message for the people responsible.
