Grazing has extended its central production unit (CPU) in London’s Bermondsey by almost 50% having taken on the lease of a neighbouring unit.
The delivered-in office and venue catering specialist’s CPU has been based out of Bermondsey’s Old Jamaica Business Estate since early 2007. The new space will allow the business to produce more than 1,000 additional meals per day.
Four people have already been recruited into new positions at Grazing’s CPU since the beginning of the year with plans to bring an additional six operational roles into the business to staff the larger space.
The expansion is in response to growing demand for catering solutions that can be produced offsite, delivered in, and tailored to the needs of offices with fewer than 1,000 onsite workers at any one time, as well as the flexibility to deliver once, twice or three times a week, depending on attendance.
Sam Hurst, Chief Grazing Officer, Grazing, said: “It’s always been our intention to expand our CPU as we grow and we plan to take on more space in the future, with the aim to double the size of the business in the next three years. Office managers are getting tired of using pricey delivery apps that don’t adequately cater for the office environment but still need a solution for feeding their employees, which our model is ideal for.
“We’ve made a sizeable investment growing our CPU footprint and production capacity to keep pace with demand and it set us up really nicely to service future business.”
