Harlech Foodservices is now supplying Shire Services, the catering arm of Shropshire County Council, with a range of drinks and vending products for primary and secondary schools.
David Roberts, Harlech regional account manager, said: “As a firm with a strong local connection to Shropshire it’s very important to us that the quality and nutritional value of the food and drink in schools is as high as possible and that only the best is used.
“We aim to use suppliers local to the client wherever possible as that cuts food miles and ensures that the benefits of the contract are shared with the local community. We work very closely with Shire Services and our suppliers like Wenlock Spring here in Shropshire and with other clients across Shropshire, the West Midlands, the North West and Wales to ensure that is the case.”
