Girl eating sandwich

Ideal for a covid-19 environment

With pandemic safety rules restricting kitchen and dining operations, many catering operators are opting for ready-made cold food solutions, with grab & go sandwiches and snacks a favourite option. 

Anne Lyons, Catering Manager at Hershel Grammar School talks about the benefits of ready-made sandwiches:

We have been buying ready-made sandwiches for the past couple of years from the same supplier. And, I must say that they provide us with excellent service and their sandwiches, wraps, baguettes and salad pots are excellent quality. Our students really like all their products and the fact they have so much choice! Furthermore, their eye-catching packing already has allergen and nutrition values displayed on the box which helps us and students. 

I would not go back to making our own sandwiches as it is not cost-effective and we could not offer such a wide choice to the staff and students.
