With over 10 years experience in the industry, Skelton’s most recent position at Pasta King focused specifically on the education arena. Young’s foodservice director, Adrian Greaves commented: “It’s fantastic to welcome Paul Skelton to our team. His valuable experience and expertise within the education sector will help us further support schools by inspiring their menus and informing them about the fantastic benefits of seafood.
“As the largest seafood company within the UK, we are able to provide a full range of products that will offer children plenty of variety and make school meals interesting.”
Skelton added: “I am delighted to be joining Young’s at such an exciting time, particularly with regards to education. Education is a key part of the overall strategy and I’m very much looking forward to helping achieve the business’s aims and objectives in a sector I’m very ardent about.
“Young’s Foodservice has a diverse range of solutions, created specifically for schools. And it is my challenge to help push the boundaries of traditional school meals, and encourage school caterers to utilise fish on their menus. I look forward to highlighting the benefits that these products can provide and passing on our passions as a company, from delicious and nutritious recipe ideas to educating schools on sustainability and responsible sourcing.”
