Our primary business operates in the attractive and growing convenience foods sector in the UK.
Our primary business is manufacturing convenience food in categories such as sandwiches, salads, sushi, chilled snacking, chilled ready meals, chilled soups and sauces, chilled quiche, ambient sauces and pickles, and frozen Yorkshire Puddings. Our products are manufactured for grocery and other retailers, including all of the major UK supermarkets.
The very nature of the product categories in which Greencore operates demands a high degree of operational and commercial flexibility to fulfil our customers’ needs. The need to adapt and innovate flows through our business model and is reflected in our culture.
