The specialist caterer for independent schools for over 20 years has expanded into the business & industry (B&I) sector and secured its first major corporate contract to provide catering and hospitality services for a global technology company and its European headquarters.
With an average of 400 employees currently at the organisation’s existing site and an expected 700 in the new building, Palmer & Howells says its mission is to ensure that “every individual receives an excellent culinary experience”.
A key element of Palmer & Howell’s B&I proposition is its Refuel Kitchen concept which has been carefully developed to transform workplace dining into an experience that nourishes the body and inspires the mind by providing balanced, innovative and sustainable meals that enhance employee wellbeing and productivity.
Jeremy Alderton, Managing Director of Palmer & Howells, said: “With over two decades of experience in providing freshly prepared food to prestigious independent schools, Palmer & Howells has the experience and expertise to provide bespoke, high-quality catering for B&I clients.
“Traditional corporate catering is often limited to unhealthy comfort food or uninspiring healthy options and our Refuel Kitchen concept has been created to disrupt this norm and to set a new standard. It is aimed at companies that value employee wellbeing and productivity and that recognise that what their employees eat has a direct impact on their performance and overall health.”
Corporate clients will have access to Palmer & Howells’ Fuelling Potential platform which provides educational resources and personalised workshops about the importance of a nutrient-dense diet and exercise to enhance the health and wellbeing of its employees.
A climate impact calculation system, will also empower customers to make environmentally conscious choices, and its food waste measuring system powered by AI technology to reduce waste.
