Q Catering wins sole catering contract with school meals provider

Q Catering has been awarded a sole supply agreement with south east England school meal provider Independent Catering Management (ICM).

The contract has previously been shared with Brakes for 15 years, but Q now has sole ownership of the deal for frozen and chilled products.

Andrew Saunders, managing director at Independent Catering Management comments: “We have worked with Q Catering for many years, but in the light of adverse changes in the sector and the industry, we have decided to solely trade with Q Catering for all our ambient and frozen needs.

“Challenges are not new in contract catering. As always, flexibility and versatility are key to any successful business. Over time we realised that the opportunity of working uniquely with Q would give both additional support and control to our purchasing. Notwithstanding the need to flex as required, working with a company small enough to listen but big enough to deliver.

Steve Clarke, managing director at Q Catering added: “Winning the sole supply agreement with ICM has been a huge win for us at Q Catering. It’s been a joy working with the team there over the years and we’ve really come to understand their wants and needs, which results in a fantastic, collaborative working environment. We look forward to the years ahead.”
