Prepared Foods

Tillery Valley Foods has developed its expertise in food technology to help clients in the healthcare and education sectors cook prepared chilled and frozen meals, giving their customers healthy, nutritionally balanced dishes produced to a consistently high standard.

By developing innovative cooking methods, Tillery Valley Foods is constantly striving for improved quality. The latest range of prepared meals, Vive, for example, uses steam under pressure to gently heat its prepared meals without losing nutrients or flavour.

All natural ingredients
The Vive range of meals uses all natural ingredients. There are no processed or chemically enhanced ingredients. In fact, Tillery Valley Foods uses no additives or preservatives and features the origin of ingredients on its Vive packaging.

While producing and supplying prepared food that meets and exceeds Government standards on quality and safety, Tillery Valley Foods is committed to minimising the impact it has on the environment.

Sustainable development
By buying in bulk and using predominantly local and UK-based suppliers, Tillery Valley Foods reduces food miles. It uses refrigeration systems that are ammonia-free and, thanks to the efficiencies of new technology in refrigeration, reduces its electricity usage.

It limits water usage without compromising hygiene and safety; recycles some 250 tonnes of cardboard every year; and has recently diverted food waste disposal from landfill to a local food composting site.
