Editor ’s Foreword

Increasingly we are seeing sustainability become a watchword in the food and drink industry It is not just the latest trend designed to snare customers, it’s something that we are all going to have to think about and consider how we can weave it into our businesses permanently

Consumers are getting wise to the challenges facing the planet and are demanding that their food comes from producers doing their bit to help face these issues head on

Whether that s in production transport or packaging the future of business is going to belong to those who help protect the future of the planet

A classic amongst high-speed doors br ings peace of mind f or t he classiest of cars

A uniq ue and rare collection of classic cars, supercars and motorcycles ha ve recentl y been shared wit h t he public at t he opening of t he AutoHaven Collection museum in Christc hurc h, N ew Zealand The museum, whic h also f eatures a re tro-sty le diner, storage and function area is one of a kind, and naturally enlisted the assistance of market leaders EFAFLEX to ensure the priceless collection is protected and preser ved.

Think current day, 2022 Rolls -Royce Phantom, back to vintage 1930s Cadillac Mix in a 1962 Jaguar E type, a 2019 Lamborghini SVJ and for motorbike enthusiasts Harley Davidsons and Ducatis – this is the breadth and quality of products that are currently on display in Christchurch With such a unique, rare and therefore expensive display comes with it a sense of responsibility to ensure the cars and motorbikes are not only protected from the risk of theft, but also kept in a climatecontrolled environment to ensure they are preserved in peak condition

Brian Hill, the Australasian EFAFLEX Sales Manager, commented, “ This was a really interesting project for us We are often asked for our help to design high-speed doors around automotive facilities That can range from doors at the entrance and exit points of car parks, or around automotive manufacturing plants such as machine protection to safeguard workers But this collection of supercars, classics and motorcycles is unique. Some of these pieces are irreplaceable and therefore it was a privilege to assist AutoHaven ”

AutoHaven were already aware of EFAFLEX as the global leading brand for high- speed doors and arranged a site visit in order to fully explain their requirements Within the museum is a vault storage facility which offers private car owners flexible terms to either free up storage space, or give them peace of mind that their cherished car is safe and being well maintained. The vault is kept at a certain temperature with technicians completing regular checks to ensure the cars are in tip -top condition

Matt Sheppard from AutoHaven explains: “Peace of mind when designing this unique museum was vital We knew of the build quality and reliability of the German EFAFLEX high- speed doors With Brian’s help and guidance, we decided on installing three SST Premium doors chosen for the combination of their super sleek looks and speed of opening ”

He continued: “Due to our previous experience we trusted that the EFAFLEX doors will give both us, and our customers, peace of mind regarding security Their insulation properties also mean that we can ensure the facility is kept at a certain temperature ’

Sheppard went on to say: “ The doors have only been in operation a short time, but already they have been noted for their appearance and speed of operation The delivery and installation resulted in a seamless supply and install, that couldn’t have gone smoother ”

EFAFLEX supplies to many of the world’s top leading brands including Porsche, BMW and Audi Their high- speed doors are designed bespoke to assist around the automotive industry which include machine protection doors along production lines, high- speed doors for use at loading bays and throughout warehouses, and roll-up fabric curtain options for internal applications such as paint booths.

Each door will bring benefits to the user; whether that ’ s to improve user safety, reduce energy costs through thermal insulation or drive logistics performance

Hill concludes: “ This was a delightful project to be a part of The SST Premium is classic amongst the world of doors, and so quite rightfully now being used for the classics amongst cars and motorbikes too.”

SMIRNOFF VODKA SERVES UP GLOBAL PARTNERSHIP WITH WORLD’S LARGEST COFFEE FESTIVAL GROUP

In celebration of Espresso Martini Day (Wednesday 15 March 2023), Smirnoff – the world’s number one vodka – is pleased to announce a global partnership with The Allegra Group, purveyors of the world’s largest and most celebrated coffee festivals

The partnership includes exclusive category sponsorship across the 2023 Coffee Festival portfolio to bring the perfect Espresso Martini to life for an estimated audience of 120,000 visitors across Amsterdam, London, Paris São Paolo New York and Milan

Smirnoff will bring its vibrant energy to the fore through festival-wide Espresso Martini sampling and headline sponsorship of the cocktail bars at each festival to serve up perfectly shaken Smirnoff Espresso Martinis A bespoke ‘City Serve’, created in collaboration with a local coffee roaster and in celebration of the unique spark each city s culture has to offer, will also be available

Four of this year ’ s largest festivals will also play home to Smirnoff Cocktail Masterclasses

sessions designed to bring guests together over a premium-quality cocktail-making experience Each 45-minute session will be hosted by a local leading bartender and local coffee roaster, offering guests the opportunity

to get hands-on with Smirnoff and empowering them with the skillset to create the perfect Espresso Martini and their local City Serve at home Masterclass tickets will be available to purchase from the Tickets section of each festival’s website

Stephanie Jacoby, Global Brand Director at Smirnoff commented:

Our partnership with The Allegra Group has been fuelled by two key cultural trends that have emerged over recent years The first is the rising number of people making cocktails at home and the second is

increasing popularity of the Espresso Martini and its resurgence as one of the top 10 cocktails of choice at the bar

We know the exceptional smoothness of Smirnoff No 21 serves as the perfect foundation for vodka-based cocktails, so we wanted to challenge leading local bartenders and coffee roasters to experiment with this to create each City Serve As a global brand, we are excited that the scale of this partnership will take us across three continents, showcasing Smirnoff s aptitude as the vodka of choice for Espresso Martinis and beyond ” Ludovic Rossignol, Co-Founder of The Coffee Festivals commented:

We feel an authentic connection with Smirnoff through our joint passions for culture, flavour and craft We’re very pleased to have them as a partner across our 2023 coffee festivals and look forward to the brand bringing its vibrant energy to our existing event formats We’ve seen increased interest from the coffee trade in exploring coffee cocktails and we look forward to working with Smirnoff on educating and entertaining through the art of mixology at each of our worldwide events

GOUDSMIT DEVELOPS 10,000 GAUSS ROTARY MAGNET SEPARATOR

The recently developed 10,000 gauss rotating cleanflow magnet from Waalre-based Goudsmit Magnetics filters magnetic and paramagnetic particles out of poorly flowing greasy powders in the food, pharma and chemical industries The magnet rotor is composed of seven strong magnet bars, equipped with Neodymium-iron-boron magnets, each with a diameter of 32mm This is 40% thicker than regular magnetic bars and also used by the magnet manufacturer – the only one in the market – in the static version of the cleanflow The magnetic separator was developed in response to many customer requests It is suitable for free-fall lines and captures both iron and AISI 304 and AISI 316 particles as small as 30 µm from cocoa or milk powder, for example An additional advantage is the higher capacity powder that the new cleanflow magnet type can process compared to the 8- or 12-rod magnet separator The magnetic extractor is designed to be

interchangeable one-to-one with existing rotary cleanflow systems See how it works: https://youtu be/xs8Lzdp8BAQ

Capacities

The powerful magnetic bars in the cleanflow separator filter metal particles and paramagnetic particles from fatty powders and granular products The separator is available in three sizes of which the largest model is suitable for product flows of up to 45m3/hour The magnetic flux density of 10,000 gauss was measured on the contact

surface of the bars The maximum working and product temperature is 140°C, the minimum and maximum ambient temperature: -20°C to 40°C The disadvantage of greasy (milk) powder is that this product does not flow well; the reason why the magnetic bars rotate in the product flow This counteracts bridge formation and material accumulation and ensures optimal magnetic contact to capture metal contamination The result is a high degree of separation and a clean product

Cleaning

During the manual cleaning cycle the operator removes the rotor from the housing and pulls the magnetic bars out of the extractor, after which the metal particles are loosened and can be disposed of The company has also developed a special cleaner system, which allows easy and hygienic cleaning of the extractor

BEARINGS & DRIVES SIGNS EXCLUSIVE DISTRIBUTOR DEAL WITH CERAMICSPEED

As we are all aware in the food and beverage industry, uptime and reliability are everything Production equipment requires food-grade certification and any breakdown will cause costly repairs and production stops To further strengthen its support to the industry, NW based bearings firm Bearings & Drives Ltd has become the sole distributor of the industry leading CeramicSpeed Insulate bearings, introducing to the UK market the latest technology in operational efficiency, allowing UK customers day to day direct access to these products from their warehousing facilities

Constantly at the forefront of technological development and innovation CeramicSpeed is a dedicated and leading supplier of hybrid ball bearings With a strong presence in the European market, they are rapidly becoming the industry s most trusted supplier of advanced bearing solutions CeramicSpeed Insulate ball bearings are custom-made for electrical motors and a guarantee against damage caused by stray currents

Steve Bacon,Sales Director at Bearings & Drives, explains the significance of the supply arrangements for the UK food and drink industry: We are thrilled to become the UK distributor for such a ground-breaking product CeramicSpeed Insulate Hybrid ball bearings are the future across all industries, including manufacturers of electrical motors The demand for stronger, more durable and longer-lasting bearings for electrical motors is

on the rise – and in many applications conventional steel balls in motor bearings simply can’t compare When we reviewed CeramicSpeed Insulate in action in Denmark we saw the immediate benefits that we can bring to our manufacturing clients here in the UK Taking for example how the product range brought significant efficiencies to a leading Danish dairy products manufacturer The manufacturer faced sizeable issues with the durability of steel bearings they were using in a specific motor The products manufactured by the dairy contain many small particles that penetrate the bearings subsequently reducing the bearing life Along with high bearing temperatures this led to many control shutdowns and became detrimental to efficient operation

CeramicSpeed Insulate bearings are nonconductive as the ceramic balls in the bearing have a resistivity of 15 kV per mm The Insulate series is the best defence against damage caused by stray currents In addition to being protected from the passage of electrical currents, the operating temperature in hybrid bearings is approximately 10-20 °C lower than conventional bearings By using these, the dairy has now reduced the bearing temperature with 15ºC increasing lubricant life and decreasing production shutdown considerably The CeramicSpeed bearings with their higher resistance towards corrosion and contamination, increased the life of the

bearings by 400%

Anders Thormann, Managing Director at CeramicSpeed explains why they chose Bearings & Drives as their exclusive partner for CeramicSpeed Insulate: Bearings & Drives helped us to break through in the UK food and beverage category in 2017, and the knowledge gained on our products by their team since then puts them in a unique position to take the next step in distributing CeramicSpeed products in the UK ”

Bearings and Drives based in Cheshire serves its national client base with industrial Maintenance, Repair and Operations products from globally recognised manufacturers of Bearings Power Transmission Industrial Gearboxes, Motors, Tools & Consumables

Drawing on their vast experience of customer requirements, their products and services have been developed for all types of industries including Food, Paper, Recycling, Distribution, Quarrying and Plastics

The business offers single source supply, including managed inventory services to streamline your ordering process, reduce downtime and improve production efficiency - creating considerable cost savings Their industry leading Repair Services cover Motors Gearboxes & Pumps Available 24/7, the team of highly skilful engineers is on hand to deliver advice and engineering solutions

As Saf e as in a Vault

EFAFLEX supplies Class RC 4 security doors for t he production facility of a Swiss security company in Turkey

The use of security printing inks contributes signif icantly to t he protection of all banknotes, security and valuable documents from counter feiting and fraudulent use worldwide. A Swiss company supplies, among other things, high-quality gravure inks, optical ef f ect inks and luminescent inks, and a range of innovative mac hine-readable solutions t hat meet t he increased c hallenges of automated banknote processing. It is logical that this company, whic h among other things works to protect the currency, for the public sector and f or brand and product prot ection, must do ever ything it can to protect its products from unauthorised access by a wide var ie ty of cr iminal groups The customer t heref ore want ed highl y secure doors to saf eguard a production sit e in Tur key They were already f amiliar wit h EFAFLEX and, af t er int ensive discussions and t he present ation of t he EFA -SS T® Secure, decided to go for it.

After extensive research, the project management ordered four EFASST-L Secure RC 4, three EFA- SST-Efficient RC 2 and three EFA- SST-Essential from EFAFLEX , the manufacturer of special door systems. Government documents of value are produced and stored in the plant For this reason, the entire facility is virtually the same as a high- security wing The incoming and outgoing goods, the warehouse and the production are protected with EFAFLEX security doors The doors for personal access are also designed to RC 4 and RC 2 standards

Certified Security

The EFA- SST® Secure, certified according to Resistance Class 4 (RC 4), is considered to be the safest high- speed door in the world With this door, the company secures its production as much as possible without having to forego the speed of an efficient high- speed door With a maximum size of W = 4,000mm, H = 5,000mm, the door opens at a speed of up to 1 0m/s and closes at up to 0 6m/s, which is another important security feature in addition to burglary protection. Due to the high opening and closing speeds of the doors, no unauthorised persons can enter the building Therefore, these parameters were one of the most important criteria for the selection of these doors Because several million important securities and documents leave the factory every day and the doors are therefore in almost constant use, the reliability and low maintenance was a decisive advantage of the doors for the customer

Automatic locking mechanisms on both sides close the door securely with every opening cycle and make it an almost insurmountable obstacle Valuables are thus excellently protected The door Resistance Class 4 is confirmed by the certification according to DIN/TS 18194:2020 - RC 4 by ift Rosenheim

The company praises the functionality of the door systems and is also very satisfied with the service The doors were produced and delivered by EFAFLEX in a record time of five weeks, so that the customer ’ s tight deadlines were met, and the production of important valuable documents could start on schedule The first follow -up orders for other production sites are already being discussed

Document Printing Licence: Corporate Information

As a producer of security printing inks and security solutions for the production of banknotes and other security and valuable documents, such as passports, ID cards and licences, the manufacturer also offers solutions and services for secure authentication, identification and traceability These new security solutions are used by governments, central banks, high-security printers and industry, with the company also acting as a consultant

As a landmark World Health Organization (WHO) report reveals the world is significantly off track to achieve sodium intake reduction targets and advocates for increasing the availability and use of low-sodium salt substitutes, Caroline Klinge of the UK’s leading low in sodium salt brand LoSalt calls on retailers to do more to encourage consumers to make the healthier choice, by driving availability and visibility of reduced sodium salts

A landmark report from the WHO into sodium intake has revealed that the world is off-track to achieve its global target of reducing sodium intake by 30% by 2025 and has advocated for a comprehensive approach to sodium reduction, including increasing the availability and use of potassium-enriched low in sodium salt substitutes

In light of these findings Caroline Klinge is calling on retailers to shift the narrative on salt and encourage consumers to make the healthier choice by giving potassiumenriched low-sodium salt substitutes more prominence on shelf and communicating that the health benefits are not compromised by taste

The WHO report reveals that at present only 5% of member states are protected by mandatory sodium reduction policies, but that implementing highly cost-effective reduction policies could save an estimated 7 million lives globally by 2030

As Dr Tom Frieden, President and CEO of Resolve to Save Lives a not-for-profit organisation working with countries to prevent 100 million deaths from cardiovascular disease over 30 years comments of the report: There are proven measures that governments can implement and important innovations, such as low sodium salts The world needs action and now or many more people will experience disabling or deadly–but preventable–heart attacks and strokes ”

In light of the report’s bleak findings and recommendation to explore ways to increase the availability and use of potassium-enriched low-sodium salt substitutes, Caroline Klinge is calling on retailers to do more to promote these alternatives and support the health of consumers Caroline comments:

“For us to have any chance of meeting the

WHO s global target of reducing sodium intake by 30% by 2025, retailers must do more to shift the narrative around salt – increasing the prominence of reduced sodium salt on shelf and promoting it as the healthier alternative

“Discretionary salt use (the amount we use at home for cooking and seasoning) has not reduced over the last decade indicating that current messaging from the NHS is not working and salt use remains a habit that people will not alter

If consumers will not give up salt it is only responsible for retailers to encourage them to switch to the healthier alternative – but with reduced sodium salt currently accounting for just 2 6% of all salt sold it is clear more needs to be done

“Consumer behaviour trials show that

increased visibility of better for you alternatives, supported by educational messaging around product health benefits, can help accelerate consumption shifts into a healthier category

“Therefore, by giving reduced sodium salts more space on shelf and supporting this with in-store and online educational messaging, retailers can do more to point consumers towards the healthier choice before it is too late

“Simple changes like this can make a big difference to the wellbeing of consumers both in the UK and beyond, and I hope to see retailers make responsible changes imminently ”

“RETAILERS MUST ‘SHIFT THE NARRATIVE ON SALT’ BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE”

SCANDI STANDARD STANDARDISES WITH INFOR CLOUD

Infor®, the industry cloud company, has announced that Scandi Standard has chosen Infor CloudSuite Food & Beverage to consolidate and standardise its core processes such as purchasing, processing, logistics and finance The suite will be delivered as a multitenant cloud solution powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS)

change in the business With a standardised platform, Scandi Standard also sees an opportunity to more quickly introduce new technologies into the group and future-proof its development

Our value chain is quite similar in all markets where we operate which means that we see an opportunity to standardise our processes as far as possible in the industryadapted solution that Infor has says Göran Matz Scandi Standard s Group CIO The move to a new business system is, to a large extent, a process of change With an industry-specific business system in the cloud the introduction is facilitated while at the same time we get support with updates and best practices for

the food industry ”

After a procurement process, the group chose Infor CloudSuite Food & Beverage A multi-tenant cloud deployment was a deciding factor in Scandi Standard’s decision, ensuring the business can benefit from continuous updates with minimal administrative burden on the internal IT team

“For our core processes such as purchasing, logistics and finance, there is really no reason for us to do anything differently than other companies in our industry do but rather it is something we see can be harmonised advantageously within the group where possible Matz says With Infor we now get the uniformity we were looking for with a supplier of an ecosystem and a future-proof product ”

FOOD LOSS, THE VIRTUOUS EXAMPLE OF VOG PRODUCTS

An estimated 22% of fruit and vegetables are lost every year during or immediately after harvest Much of global food waste therefore occurs at the beginning of the value chain, long before products reach the market

Through its activities VOG Products contributes to reducing this phenomenon, thanks to its business model, to efficient planning and the significant technological investments made in recent years The South Tyrolean producer organisation is one of the largest in the sector in Europe and processes about 70-80% of the Italian industrial apple harvest (20% of the Trentino-South Tyrol harvest)

The validity of the anti-waste model adopted by VOG Products is demonstrated by a recent scientific study conducted by Christian Fischer, Professor of Agricultural and Food Economics at the Free University of Bolzano, which was also presented at the 2022 International Horticultural Congress in Angers (France)

In the study, titled “The apple processing cooperative VOG Products as a role model for minimising post-harvest crop losses – an empirical case study from South Tyrol, Italy”, Professor Fischer demonstrates how VOG Products significantly contributes to reducing harvest and post-harvest losses in the apple production chain While internationally apple

wastage averages 20% of the harvest volume with VOG Products food loss in Italian apples drops to 6-10% (depending on the year)

The FAO specifically refers to food loss as the waste of edible food in the production, post-harvest and processing stages of the food chain” Besides the wastage of the food itself, food loss also entails environmental costs in the form of loss of land, water, factors of production and labour, and leads to greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to global warming

For VOG Products, food loss already starts with the company ’ s mission statement: apples destined for industrial processing are those with minor quality defects (too big, too small or not enough colour) or do not meet the quality standards of fresh fruit, and therefore cannot be sold on the table apples market

available nationally and is seeing rising consumer demand in line with the increase in allergies, dietary needs and choices

Two million people in the UK are now cited as living with some form of food allergy and a growing 2% are practising vegans meaning providing one celebration cake for everyone to share can be a minefield

“This is a resource we have been working on for some time and we are very pleased to announce its launch,” commented Jim Winship Director responsible for managing all three associations

As you can imagine, it s taken a collaborative effort with our partners and many stakeholders to pull together something as insightful as this So we can t wait to share its worth with our members as well as any other operators looking for down-to-earth advice to help them conform with the many legal and legislative policies food businesses face these days

“Across the whole hub, we have tried our very best to break down the jargon and make this as easy to read and simple to use as possible for businesses to meet their obligations We know, especially in the ongoing climate of change in our industry, that many individuals and businesses just don’t have the time to stop and read pages and pages of legal speak – we really hope the Mint Guide will make compliance easier for everyone

The resource which is aimed at any

restaurant, food-to-go establishment or delivery business can be accessed online here: www themintguide co uk from as little as £3 75 a month (based on its annual MINT plan) but retailers can enjoy the protection, access to helplines, low-cost training and other benefits of association membership with its MINT MAX plan from £6 25 a month (based on its annual plan)

Northern pride for Seven Bro7hers

What he never guessed was that his hobby would lead to a burgeoning craft brewing business for his seven yes, seven sons

The McAvoy siblings Guy, Keith, Luke, Dan, Nat, Kit and Greg run the suitably named Seven Bro7hers brewery in Salford and they re going from strength to strength since forming in 2014

As each of the brothers hit the legal drinking age of 18, they had their ritual first pint in Dad’s cellar, from Eric s latest batch of beer

And that not only gave them a taste for the good stuff, but an appetite to succeed in business which they ’ ve certainly done

This band of brothers were not just bound by love for each other, but by love of beer, and the best possible beer at that

They ’d always fancied working together, but all went their separate ways with different careers until just short of a decade ago they collectively had their lightbulb moment why not work together doing what they loved, and creating their very own craft beer?

Jack Dixon is not a McAvoy brother but one of the ‘extended family of the Seven Bro7hers team, who joined the company five years ago

He said that the idea germinated when one of the brothers Keith worked for a while in Oslo and saw the rise of micro breweries there, at a time when the trend was yet to catch on properly in the UK

The McAvoy boys sat down and came up with a plan to not only brew their own beer but sell it to both the trade and direct to the public They ’d not only have a brewery but their own pub along with it

In the cellar of the McAvoy household in Salford, Greater Manchester, dad Eric liked to brew his own beer. With a rather large household, the basement was a chance for Eric to take refuge in his own interests for a little while.

Jack says: “Our craft beer is now sold all over the country as well as in our own Beerhouse in Ancoats Manchester We also have pubs at Media City, Salford, and Middlewood Locks in Manchester And we ’ ve plans for more We have an alehouse at Terminal Two at Manchester Airport Also a bar and kitchen opening in Halifax, and a beerhouse in Liverpool opened last year

“ The company likes to set up the outlets in places so that other businesses build up around us and we are driving the regeneration of the area ”

At the brewery they ’ re producing 3,000 litres of the finest craft beer twice a day, four days a week While the faithful beat a path to their doors every day to buy

the beers over the bar, it is also canned and bound for off-trade outlets as well ensuring that the word about Seven Bro7hers beer is slowly but surely travelling around the world Now, says Jack, the plan is to build on the success in the north-west and make Seven Bro7hers a household name across the UK and beyond They ’ ve already had successes getting into China and the US, and the international market is firmly in their sights They aim for their beer to appeal to the hardened craft aficionado and the newcomer alike with accessible, gateway beers to allow the casual drinker to discover the world of craft brewing, and popular beers that the hardcore fans get totally behind Their beers have won major awards too The

door

Watermelon Wheat Beer was awarded Double Gold at the European Beer Challenge, with their Honeycomb Pale Ale winning Gold at the same event, and Silver at the London Beer Competition for their Pilsner

They ve also been keen to explore sustainable options in their brewing and bring environmentally friendly practices into the process Five years ago they partnered with cereal giant Kelloggs to upcycle the rejected cornflakes that were too big small or overcooked and did not pass quality control that and use them in the brewing process, a venture that was so successful that they added the beer to their permanent roster

Jack added: “ We also do brewery tours and tastings, as well as holding regular events at the Tap Room in

Salford which are always extremely good fun

We work hard to make our beer taste great, whether it’s our core range or a one-off special release It’s why we ’ re in the brewing business and why people enjoy craft beer and we want everyone to love it as much as we do, so we try to stay #clearwithbeer and shy away from what new craft beer drinkers may find daunting

Our beer is for everyone ”

Oh and by the way there are also four McAvoy sisters as well Why don’t they get involved with the beer business? There’s a very good reason for that They ’ ve set up their own company, producing craft gin But that s another story

Chicor y is just the tip of the iceberg for for ward-thinking veg producers

DGM Growers specialise in growing chicor y from their base in Holbeach, Lincolnshire. They are the only UK commercial grower of this niche salad crop and with 40 years of experience they definitely know their ‘ roots’.

Originally established in the 1980s under the name Jack Buck Growers, their commercial name was changed to DGM Growers in 2011 following its acquisition by the UK’s largest independent fresh produce supplier Fresca Group in 2007 DGM are the largest UK producers of celeriac, rainbow chard and fennel but it is the unique growing process of chicory that captivates people the most

Chicory is a product that not a lot of people know too much about: it s very popular in France, Belgium and the Netherlands and is classed as an “Endive” which is a leaf vegetable and part of the same family as Radicchio It s less popular in the UK despite offering health benefits such as Vitamin B6, manganese, inulin, potassium and Vitamins A&C as well as calcium, it is certainly one to include in your diet

Chicory is not an easy crop to grow it s a two stage process beginning with the root, which is grown outdoors and looks similar to a parsnip but with a leafier top They trim off the leaf and put the roots into

cold storage, this fools the root into thinking winter has arrived, sending it off to sleep until it is required for the forcing (growing) process

The second stage is the forcing process this requires total darkness, a hydroponic system and humidity The growing rooms at DGM Growers use state-of-the-art technology to produce clean, uniform chicons that can be found across UK supermarkets It takes precisely 21 days to grow a chicon to the right size for the UK market, this is the point where they harvest it and pack it They currently grow over 4 million heads of chicory each year

To maintain their market leadership, DGM Growers have invested significantly in their infrastructure, just before the COVID -19 pandemic they delivered additional capacity through a multi-million pound expansion of their facility, enabling the successful support of its retail customers during the most crucial time In 2021 they implemented a new IT system, in 2022 they ve installed solar panels to generate 25% of their energy (the other 75% comes from renewables), they ’ ve also introduced automation (robotics) in their operations that reduces reliance on labour “It has been a very busy four years getting the business fit for the future,” says Simon Scott, MD: “ We now start our most ambitious project yet, the Smart Farm, which aims to enhance our growing capability whilst achieving high

environmental sustainability

The Smart Farm will lead the way in sustainable, competitive farming ” says Simon ‘if we are to achieve our climate commitments then we need to take a different approach to how we operate it s as simple as that Doing nothing will achieve nothing

This system allows us to control the growing environment, mitigating the challenges that come with an ever-changing climate, we can provide our crops with the precise amount of nutrition and water required there is no wastage or run off as it is a closed loop system’ he added ‘ There is also no soil resulting in cleaner, consistent high-quality produce’

We want to be able to grow crops that offer our customers solutions have a positive impact on our carbon footprint and of course delight the end consumers

are proud to pack for

“We have been working with Leap to automate the packing of fennel and pak choi - as delicate products these are notoriously difficult to automate. We appreciated Leap's down to earth and collaborative approach and would highly recommend them”

Metals Laboratory Manager of the company says: Toxic metals and other elements are potentially harmful chemicals present in food adventitiously as a result of anthropogenic activities or from natural sources

They include heavy metals such as lead cadmium and mercury, and other chemical elements such as arsenic These chemicals have a long history of food contamination some of the levels found having caused serious effects on exposed populations

“ They can be introduced into the food chain at any point from growth through harvesting, storage and processing Although some metals are essential all are potentially harmful if exposures are excessive Food is a major contributor to human exposure, though other routes may also be significant (inhalation, occupational exposure drinking water)

Metals and other elements can be present in food either naturally, as a result of human activities (such as farming, industry or car exhausts) from contamination during manufacture/processing and storage, or by direct addition

PAS has set up new testing processes including a new analysis system to help food manufacturers determine if they meet new legislative regulations regarding metal content

Warren said that the laboratories now offer specific testing in mercury and arsenic, among other toxic metals and chemicals

He says: We are expanding the suite of metals that we test for in response to new legislation and we have expanded our capacity for this type of
