Corporate Services

Although our Corporate Services division operates in a commercial environment where our paying customers have full freedom of choice, we still believe that it is our responsibility to provide suitable menu options and helpful information. Our Healthwise philosophy is featured in many of our client locations in the form of leaflets, posters and menu information to help those wishing to develop or maintain a healthier lifestyle. Wherever possible a salad bar and jacket potato bar are included in catering layouts.

Throughout the year we also run specific promotions or themes for our customers.

For example, the 'Eat Active' promotion has aimed to link food and activity in a positive way, based on the idea that people in the spring and summer months spend more time outside and are more active. The food-complementary themes include 'walking and jogging', 'cycling' and 'swimming and water'. 'Festive Foods' takes an enticing look at famous food festivals with the emphasis on healthy choices.

Behind the scenes our Central Recipe database has been systematically reviewed and amended to ensure all our recipes have less salt/no added salt. Ingredient choices have been modified where possible to introduce 'healthier' alternatives and cooking methods for dishes reviewed to reduce fat content.

In most restaurant and servery areas salt has disappeared from tables and been removed to condiment stations.
