Sustainable School Meals
UK Farm Assured Standards
Our roast pork is sourced from UK Red Tractor Assured farms, providing independently audited assurance standards covering animal welfare, food safety, traceability and environmental protection. This certification offers confidence that the pork has been produced and processed to recognised standards throughout the supply chain, while also supporting UK farmers and the wider British agricultural sector.
Supporting Welsh Growers
Wherever possible, we source Welsh-grown vegetables for our school meals. Procuring produce from Welsh suppliers helps support local farming, businesses and employment, while contributing to shorter supply chains and reduced transport distances. As the availability of fresh produce can vary according to seasonality and market supply, Welsh vegetables are used whenever available and appropriate to meet our quality and menu requirements.
