From bringing in more ecologically responsible packaging, to offering ingredients that use less water, to working with programmes that help develop and support farmers - we are only getting started when it comes to looking after our planet as part of our strategy. Aspirations can only go so far, and we are making positive change within the industry, with bigger goals on the horizon.
We never like to be part of the reactionary crowd - and the industry is constantly evolving and changing with consumer’s needs and modern society. We work to be ahead of the curve, knowing the trends before they hit the supermarket shelves, and developing tomorrow’s menus and meals whilst others are scrambling to keep up. Our innovation expertise can help keep your brands up to date, whilst offering new options to consumers that help shape the market. Taking control of today’s trends will reap future rewards - and Sleaford’s expertise can make this aspiration a reality.
Quality has been our watchword from the start, and over the decades we’ve only built on our reputation for quality ingredients and service. Our technical and QA departments work every day to bring you complete transparency across our range and complete confidence in your recipes. Our sales team work alongside you to exceed your expectations from a supplier, and our transport and warehouse teams help deliver your orders to any corner of the world, on time and in full.
