Alliance in Partnership secures over £3m in contracts

Education caterer Alliance in Partnership (AiP) has won £3.6m in new and retained contracts since the beginning of the academic year across 28 schools.

This includes the Great Learners Trust in Aylesbury lengthening its contract from two to six schools and the Believe Academy Trust in Derby extending its contract from one to three schools.

AiP’s school meals offer daily menu rotations of dishes such as spiced cauliflower, chickpea and potato traybake and a no chicken tikka naan.

Steve Hawkins, managing director for schools at Sodexo UK & Ireland, said: “The AiP team has had a fantastic year so far and we look forward to seeing them build on this success further.

“School meals are an essential part of the school day and we know how important a balanced nutritious lunch is for many children. AiP has enjoyed long and close partnerships with the schools they work with and we are delighted to see more choose AiP as their school meals partner.”

The AiP group of companies, which includes the Contract Dining Company and Class Catering Services, was established in 1998 and joined Sodexo in December 2018.

It now works with over 400 primary and secondary schools.
