What makes us special?
More than a meal
When you join Holroyd Howe, you’re not joining just any school caterer. We’re specialists.
All meals are made from scratch and our chefs nurture direct relationships with suppliers local to their schools to ensure they have access to the best seasonal produce. And to offer a truly bespoke service, our chefs have the freedom to create their own vibrant menus made up of classic and innovative dishes as well as authentic international cuisines.
Our marketing campaigns and food innovation concepts help communicate the key messages from our Food, Nutrition and Sustainability Teams to all we serve, in a delicious, relevant and engaging way. Through education and innovation, we are proud to be feeding the independent minds of the future.
But above all, we understand what mealtimes mean to pupils. We want them to feel at home when they eat with us.
