Cuisine Centre
Company Profile
The Cuisine Centre is dedicated to nourishing the nation, one meal at a time. As part of the Compass Group, we pride ourselves on providing sustainable prepared meal solutions to make catering easier and more efficient for our customers in healthcare, senior living, education, and workplaces across the UK.
Approach to Healthcare
For over 20 years, improving patient wellbeing has been central to our mission of nourishing the nation. Working with over 30 acute hospital partners, we serve over 6 million patient meals every year.
Through insight published by The Patients Association, we know that the top three priorities for patients regarding hospital meals are choice, taste, and temperature. Informed by this, we continually look at ways to evolve our healthcare catering services to challenge the perception of hospital food as bland and unappetising.
Impact of Products/Services
At the Cuisine Centre we have three different meal range solutions created by our team of culinary and dietetic experts to deliver delicious, balanced meals that meet the diverse nutritional and cultural needs of hospital patients.
All are designed to reduce complexity and make mealtimes easier. Each delivers a wide choice of delicious tasting, hot food at ward level to suit your operational model, whilst reducing waste, labour and improving efficiency.
Innovation
We are delighted to introduce our new range Moreish to the healthcare market. Moreish is here to shake up kitchens with multi-portion, frozen meals that prioritise quality, nutrition and all-important flavour. With over 140 dishes to choose from, this extensive meal range delivers on flexibility, freeing up culinary time without compromising great taste and quality.
Future Direction
Our expert development team regularly review our menus and ranges to make sure they meet the dynamic needs of the healthcare market. Whether it’s supporting sustainability and carbon footprint goals with more plant-based options or improving calories and nutrient density, we remain committed to creating great-tasting food which ticks every box.
