Convenience food

So it was a very difficult situation.

Greencore, for those that don't really know our products, we're a business that sells food to go, convenience food.

So when you think about when you go into...

You're a convenience store and you buy a sandwich, a salad, a sushi, ready meals.

Is it increasingly hard to deliver... your products at a price point that works.

Actually, I would push back on that and I'd say two big tailwinds of the market today is one is convenience.

So people want to have access to convenience food and we see more and more of the types of products that we make.

And obviously now with the acquisition of Back of All, We make 4,000 different products.

Just finished your Catherine Turner story.

Catherine Turner, she was absolutely brilliant and she was looking at raviolis and things like that and convenience food, but from M&S.

Can't imagine that's on the same level as like Wiltshire Farm Foods, convenience, ready-made Iceland chicken meals.

There's UPF and there's...

And they tend to be like the kettle chip ones now.

Did you find, did you find, because you were a convenience food queen, there's no doubt about

that.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

So clearly, some of these convenience foods, frozen, canned, are helping people with disabilities

get good nutrition.

Yeah.

We hear a lot of negative things about convenience foods, packaged foods, processed, frozen, and so on.

What are your thoughts about that?

I just think that frozen foods and processed foods give people with disabilities their autonomy and independence, especially if their family member or caregiver wanted a night out or had to run an errand.
