Why Greencore?
Following our combination with Bakkavor in January 2026, we're one of the UK's leading creators of convenience food, driven by a simple purpose: to make every day taste better.
We're a vibrant and fast-moving business, proud to employ over 28,000 colleagues across 36 manufacturing sites and 21 distribution depots in the UK and the US. Together, we bring great food to life, producing high-quality products for every meal occasion - from breakfast through to dinner and dessert, with lunch and snacking in between. In FY25, our combined business generated revenues of approximately £4bn.
Our extensive direct-to-store (DTS) network, with 17 depots across the UK, enables us to deliver fresh and frozen food - both our own and from trusted partners - to thousands of stores every day, helping ensure consumers enjoy the very best, whenever and wherever they shop.
