The Original Curry Company

Collaboration with Sodexo teams on menu development is our core strength, and being a small business we can be very hands on. Our chefs are constantly coming up with new dishes to keep cycles fresh; if a team wants to introduce two or three new items to the menu, we will produce 15 to 20 different options to allow them to pick exactly the ones that are right for the customers. We never want to be a business that says ‘this is what we sell; you can order from this list'. Our business is to listen to what our clients need, and produce it. A great example of this is where we’ve recently introduced a range of 11 different curry sauces in response to a request from Sodexo’s defence segment. They’re guaranteed the same taste but there’s ease and convenience for the chefs who can add meat, fish or vegetables as they cook. And although curries are our history and still our core product, we’re expanding into other cuisines and we’re happy to develop full meals or component elements.

Partnering with a large scale business like Sodexo pushes us on not only when it comes to menu development but with our own company goals too. After the Covid pandemic we migrated our offer from fresh chilled to fresh frozen – the cooking process remains exactly the same but it’s more convenient for our clients and there’s a benefit to both parties as it reduces food waste.
