What people say about us Merck Sharpe and Dohme have found Carroll Food Services to be an excellent service provider who consistently matched our expectations and continually strived to implement a policy of continuous improvement. The senior management of the company were frequent visitors to the operation, visiting the plant at least once per week and they attended all of the plant catering committee meetings. I would have no hesitation in recommending them for any catering opportunities that arise.

Con Hogan, HR Manager Merck Sharpe and Dohme.

Kenneth’s company, Carroll Food Services, has provided superior service levels to our staff in I.F.F for many years. The quality of food and the attention to detail in terms of managing our canteen has been first class.

Joe Delaney, IFF Managing Director.

Kenneth provided catering services for Eurofound over a number of years and I found that he was a pleasure to work with. He gave the business and the service his full attention and was invariably professional in addressing any quality issues that arose. He has a very approachable style and is committed to ensuring that the service that he provides is the best.

Ray Comerford, HR Director Eurofound.

Kenneth is a very professional businessman and is always approachable, flexible and willing to give great service.

Ken Duggan CBS Secondary School.

Our experience in Moffett Engineering has been that Carroll Food Services have shown themselves to be an excellent and unrivalled food service company and have consistently been pro-active in adapting to market changes and have gone on to reduce our overheads in this sector quite considerably. This has included negotiating and implementing a redundancy plan with existing staff and this was completed successfully without any interruption to catering services. I would have no hesitation in recommending Carroll food services for any catering opportunities that may arise in the future.

Terence Hughes, Human Resources Manager. Moffett Engineering The School has a daily population of 1300 people and the facility serves their needs from 7.30am through to 7.00pm on a daily basis. We would have no hesitation in recommending Carroll Food Services to any organisation or large groups who would require such a service.

Gordon de Gruchy, Highlands School Jersey 19

What people say about us Littelfuse Ireland ltd (formerly a subsidiary of GE) operated a manufacturing base in Dundalk between 1966 and 2008. Over the length of the service contract Carroll Food Services provided a high quality and cost effective service to our company and showed a unique and impressive ability to suit the changing needs of the company.

I would not hesitate in recommending Carroll Food Services for any company or organisation who are in the market place for a professional approach to meet their catering needs.

Alan Philips Finance Manager Littelfuse Ireland.

We would not hesitate in recommending Carroll Food Services as a leading contract catering company. Carroll Food Services consistently delivered an extremely efficient service and their professional approach to this service meant that we as a company did not have to be involved in the running of the facility. Walls Construction would recommend Carroll Food Services to any company actively seeking the services of a contract catering company.

Ian Barrett, PJ Walls.

Kenneth came into our organisation (a Dublin based club) to do a root and branch review and make recommendations for change. They were sensible and practical and were successfully acted upon. We are still in contact with Kenneth and I’m happy to highly recommend his work.

Kate Lawlor, Hibernian United Services Club.

"Having worked for a company in Jersey who utilised the Contract and Concession Catering supplied by Kenneth, I can recommend him whole-heartedly, as would all employees, as the standard set by his company set the bench mark for quality, price and service."

Andy Gordon, Owner, Propaganda Advertising and Design, formerly of Jersey Post Group, Channel Islands “My company Innovative Food Solutions has worked in conjunction with Kenneth Carroll and the team at Carroll Food Services since 2000.
