Fresh Food
Whilst we all haven’t become gourmets overnight there’s no doubt that over the last few years the average person in the UK has become a lot more aware of the quality of the food that they consume and for most people quality food equals fresh food. Modern lifestyles and the drive towards convenience have seen the fresh food convenience sector grow from almost nothing to one with a retail market value in excess of £7 billion, over the last 20 years.
The enormous range of products available in the fresh chill counters of today’s supermarkets is matched by the variety of opportunities available in the companies that produce and manufacture these products. Whether it’s something as traditional and straight forward as a pint of milk or something more exotic and involved like a Thai Green Curry these products all have the same characteristics – they are perishable and have a short shelf life. This reliance on the ‘cool chain’ gives the sector a certain ‘buzz’, a sense of urgency, that effects the way businesses operate and the type of people they attract.
