apetito

CEO, The Beckmead Trust

"The benefits of having apetito for us are twofold. Across a number of our schools, we are responsible for children with social, emotional and mental health issues. We’ve found that having apetito’s excellent quality hot food in the middle of the school day is critical to our ability to nurture the children properly and really does help to support their emotional well-being, as well as their physical needs."

Headteacher, St Mark's CofE Primary School

"Moving to apetito has given us full menu control, reduced waste, and removed reliance on chef skills. The children love the food, and many have switched from packed lunches. apetito’s tastings for pupils, staff, and parents, plus their ongoing support, made the transition seamless. The team have been brilliant - I couldn’t recommend them highly enough."

Headteacher, Marlsfield Primary Academy

"The apetito team were so knowledgeable and supportive, and offered us a tasting lunch for our parents to try the food before committing. The food is delicious, so much choice, and we have so many children who come back for more after every meal. The cost of our labour and energy has gone down and we are already seeing a savings in our budget. I would recommend any school to meet with apetito, to gain and understand their offering."

Business Manager, Dee Banks School

“With us having profoundly disabled children, it’s difficult to make sure they get the right dietary requirements. Our children like consistency and rely on it to feel safe and secure. With apetito meals, the consistency and quality every time really helps our children and encourages them to eat.”
