Olive scores £1m St George's Park contract

Midlands-based workplace caterer Olive Catering Services has won a £1m, three-year contract with the FA's national football centre, St George's Park.

Olive will manage the staff restaurant at the flagship sports education and coaching facility in Burton-upon-Trent, Staffordshire, home to England's 28 national football teams.

The deal will see Olive cater for approximately 220 members of staff from the head office and technical teams, as well as managing pitch-side catering for events such as the under-17 UEFA European championship, which took place earlier this year.

Damon Brown, Olive's co-founder, said: "Securing the contract at St George's Park is a brilliant achievement and we are excited to be opening a restaurant at such a prestigious site. Preparing fresh food that is nutritious and exciting is at the heart of everything we do, so we couldn't wish for a better way to showcase this ethos than at St George's Park."
