As an employer FDH is committed to the health and well-being of its’ workforce signing up to two pledges under the Government’s Responsibility Deal to improve public health. Nick Prime, managing director of FDH explains. ”lt would be hypocritical of us not to participate when our solution (Saffron) supports the hospitality sector and our clients are committing to pledges. Our staff are our greatest asset, the majority are from the hospitality industry, we work with caterers on a daily basis so it’s important that we keep on top of this for both personal and professional reasons.”
As a hospitality solutions provider FDH is also committed to assisting hospitality organisations benefit from joining the Deal, Nick continues “Over the last five years we have worked closely with education caterers to develop solutions that help deliver healthier menus; the success has been phenomenal and we believe the Deal will similarly benefit commercial caterers. With many organisations taking advantage of seasonal food and market availability, flexibility and speed of use were paramount in the design brief; this has been achieved with Saffron supporting organisations in the licenced, high street and leisure sectors.”
Fretwell-Downing Hospitality was created 30 years ago from a need to have visibility of costs and profit within our own hotel and catering business. Today we are still true to our founding objective and provide the hospitality industry with solutions that help operators improve business performance through all parts of the cost cycle.
