We are also very proud to have achieved the internationally recognised standard for the environmental management of business (ISO 14001), which has been awarded to only 1% of UK businesses, as well as ISO 9001, which assesses the quality management systems in place within the business.”

The company uses recyclable and biodegradable disposable service-ware, discourages water wastage and sources ingredients locally.
