Around Noon based at Greenbank Industrial Estate in Newry has been recognised in two of the most prestigious company listings in the UK.
The Newry-headquartered business employs over 800 people in Newry and at manufacturing facilities in Slough and North London. Around Noon has been listed in the Sunday Times Hundred and the FEBE (For Entrepreneurs, By Entrepreneurs) Growth 100, published this month.
The food-to-go manufacturer, which produces high-quality chilled, hot and frozen products including sandwiches, wraps, salads and baked goods, is ranked 45th in FEBE Growth 100 and 96 in the Sunday Times Hundred.
This follows on from Around Noon recently appearing in the Alantra Food & Beverage Fast 50 listing of the fastest growing food and drink businesses in the UK.
The FEBE Growth 100 reveals, on an annual basis, the fastest companies in the UK where the founders are still involved. It says that its listing is where you'll find some of the most talented entrepreneurs, most exciting companies and incredible teams.
The Sunday Times Hundred is the annual ranking of the UK’s fastest-growing private companies with revenues of less than £250million.
Gareth Chambers, CEO of Around Noon, said: “Our business has grown from humble beginnings to become one of the largest producers of food-to-go on these islands and that is testament to the hard-working team we have built – one that is at the very forefront of the industry, supporting our clients to continually innovate and serve the needs of this fast-paced market.”
Around Noon produces over 4.4 million products every month which are supplied into industries including forecourt, convenience and supermarket retail, the café and coffee shop industry, contract catering, healthcare, travel, education and corporate.
