Ring said: “Apetito is proud of its track record of growth and combining that with a mission to make a real difference to the lives of our customers. Whilst current supply chain pressures are posing real challenges for industry more widely, we remain committed to investing for growth and positioning ourselves as one of the UK’s leading food businesses.”
The company also invests heavily in providing specialist nutritional meals to customers living with conditions such as dysphagia and dementia.
