Greencore Centre of Excellence

A Centre of Excellence for preparing Italian Ready meals, delivering over 1.6 million meals for Tesco every week.

This project involved significant new building, adaption and conversion of a live, high throughput food production facility, undertaken in over 60 mini-phases to maintain the 24/7 production.

We have been involved since preparation of the concept design,  and our experience in this sector secured Planning Approval under very difficult and restrictive circumstances.

The project involved large new build additions to create an Intake/Chill and Cold storage, and new Despatch with marshalling and finished goods storage, plus expansion of all external yards and improved docking with air-lock pods.

A new 2-storey ‘showpiece’ office with specialist taste panel rooms, NPD suite and presentation board rooms, linked with a new canteen and revitalised office facilities provides the staff with a modern working environment.
