Ready Meal Vendors
The Perfect Solution for ‘Out of Hours’ Food Service
Our “Flavours of the World” microwave-ready meals offer a convenient and delicious option for staff needing a hot meal outside regular hours. Whether you’re looking to dine in with a built-in microwave or enjoy a takeaway meal at your leisure, our extensive menu delivers a variety of options with something for everyone.
Flavours of the World Menu
The range features up to 14 meals and 2 sides, with budget-friendly options alongside the Bistro Express menu, which includes 9 ready meals, offering excellent value for the fast-paced ‘Grab N Go’ culture in busy environments. Ideal for night-shift workers or those who don’t have the time to step out for a meal, these meals can be ready in as little as 90 seconds in the microwave or reheated on the stovetop.
Cost-Effective and Convenient
From a facilities or catering department perspective, our 24/7 ready meal vending machines provide a cost-effective solution for ‘out of hours’ hot meals, compared to the expensive frozen food options that require limited freezer space.
Long Shelf Life & Easy Restocking
Our ambient ready meals boast a shelf life of 9 to 18 months, eliminating the need for refrigeration and reducing food waste. The online menu provides all necessary allergen and nutritional information, including full compliance with CQUIN guidelines for NHS organizations.
Flexible Machine Options
Choose from up to 6 different models, either standalone or within a vending surround, with customizable branding options. Our vending machines are low-maintenance and come with both cash and cashless payment systems. The meal cost is very reasonable, and simple restocking ensures a smooth operation, with good profit margins.
