Our vision is to make people happy, no matter

what the work day brings and we do it by
Media
bringing company culture to life with our brand
of freshly prepared food and inspiring services.
Over the years we’ve worked with some of
the best FMs in London, providing them a viable
alternative to the traditional contract catering
model. Fooditude’s delivered-in approach saves
FMs the hassle and cost of building on site
kitchens – along with all the labour that’s involved
in maintaining that type of operation. Fooditude
produces everything in a central production kitchen
and then delivers both hot and cold food to clients.
We have our own sta on site to take care of service
and health and safety and all our sites have 5 star
health and safety ratings. Whether it is catering
for daily breakfast, lunch and dinner or providing
occasional o ice treats like happy hours, barbecues
or even a posh a ernoon tea, we answer the
catering question for FMs.
But don’t just take it from us. We’re proud to
count some of the world’s leading tech and media
firms like Twitter, Dropbox and Verizon Media as
clients. Here's what one of them has to say:
“Fooditude consistently surprise us with their
Cooking healthy food for over 1000 people
every day isn’t all fun and games. A lot of thought
goes into planning these menus at that scale and
ensuring they are well-balanced, nutritious and
sustainably sourced – while also being a joy to
eat. Dean Kennett, our Managing Director, says:
“As contract caterers we’re feeding our clients the
majority of their food for the day so we feel the
onus is on us to keep it healthy. But, it’s not just
about how healthy our food is, or how balanced in
calories, it’s also about how it makes you feel, and
how we, as your caterers, can contribute to your
overall well-being.”
It’s this close connection with our clients and
our commitment to working in partnership with
them to reach their goals for a healthy workplace
that sets our service apart from the high street food
o er. Companies are becoming increasingly aware
of the benefit of workplace food for supporting
company culture. Almost all of our clients o er
lunch to their employees as a perk. To be a perk
our o er needs to meet or exceed the high street
in diversity of choice, quality, even aesthetics.
In addition to our daily food o er, we also host
pop-ups, wellness talks, artisan food tastings, and
farmers markets – just to name a few. All this serves
to delight our diners and keep our o er fresh. We
think the high street is great for lunches, but it’s no
competition for having a creative catering partner
to keep teams engaged with their workplace and
motivated to do their best work.
2019 is an exciting year for us. We have just
launched our rebrand and are poised to move into
our new 20,000 sq’ central production kitchen.
If you’d like to meet a food partner who will help
make your sta eat happy, come along to one of
our open days in March. Or, invite us to pop by for
a visit and we can give you a few pointers on how
to bring your food programme to life. Email hello@
