The food distribution company has a new £1.5m contract to provide schools in Gwynedd with a range of products including Welsh beef as well as landing a £700,000 12-month agreement to supply schools and care homes in Rhondda Cynon Taf.
Harlech account manager for Gwynedd Ursula Scurrah-Price said: “It’s great that the closest school to our headquarters is supplied by us. Now that free schools meals are available to all pupils we would like to encourage as many as possible to take them up.
“As a North Wales firm it’s very important to us that the quality and nutritious value of the meals in schools is as high as possible and that only the best quality is used and we work closely with Gwynedd and other councils to ensure that is the case.”
Harlech now have contracts with all six North Wales councils to supply schools and they hope the Rhondda Cynon Taf deal will be the first of many with South Wales authorities.
