Foodspeed Commitment
We are committed to sourcing local products where possible while always offering choice to our clients. To this end we also purchase products and services from suppliers throughout Europe.
As a socially responsible company, we aim to ensure that our suppliers meet our ethical trading standards so that all products are produced under hygienic and safe working conditions by employees, themselves treated humanely.
We audit our suppliers, checking the origin and specification of all products, where possible ensuring they come from a sustainable source and meet industry-recognised quality assured standards.
CHARITABLE WORK
Foodspeed is pleased to pursue a policy of social responsibility that extends to donations to selected charitable causes at home and abroad. These are some of the great charities Foodspeed has worked with and supported with donations over the past ten years.
The Felix Project
The Felix Project helps feed local communities in London by rescuing surplus food from the food industry and delivering it to over 350 frontline charities and schools. It provides food for over 19,700 meals a week from its depot in West London and will more than double this capacity via its new Enfield depot. www.thefelixproject.org
Quintessentially Foundation
Quintessentially Foundation was created in 2008 to address some of Britain’s most acute social problems, especially those right on our doorstep, focusing on children and young people living in poverty. Working with charity partners, it aims to galvanise a network of donors, friends and partners, inspiring them to make a difference. www.quintessentiallyfoundation.org
