“We cater to very large sporting events and we want the very best meat that we can sell. As part of that, I need to know where it comes from and with Kepak, I know it will be delivered to me at the right price and with all the support I might need. Our experience of working with Kepak has been excellent. Their approach is very professional and flexible, and of course, the quality is superb. They are the perfect supplier for us.”
“Kepak has always been very supportive to us and our business here at Gnarly Burgers. They always go above and beyond when it comes to implementation and menuing. Which is why we put their innovative blended burgers on our menus. We had not seen anything like this range previously, and it’s had a great response from our customers who seem to really enjoy them. Gnarly Burgers would definitely recommend Kepak Foodservice to anyone in the business.”
“We went with Kepak and Big Al’s over other options because the product spec and reliability that was on offer was much better suited to us and our business. The administrative support in particular was super-efficient and was the deciding factor in the end. Our relationship has since grown, with our business gaining more product variety and we now have a much fuller menu solution portfolio. Kepak consistently go above and beyond with the additional services for us and as a result we would recommend them to others.”
“Leeds United Football Club has had a long, successful working relationship with Kepak Foodservice. We have 3 kiosks which sell Kepak products solely and they’re often used to help promote new products. Kepak has helped us increase our revenue each year and it’s hard to find anyone who matches up to the level of support and quality product. They started with us as our burger supplier, but not we have three kiosks and this is in part to the fact that Kepak goes above and beyond every year to help support our business. We would recommend Kepak to anyone in the business”
“We have introduced Big all’s range into smaller food outlets like the studio and Weavers coffee shops”, these venues previously were not able to serve hot food because of the lack of cooking facilities. Big Al’s products enable us to offer better quality food in two more stations which is, of course, excellent for students.”
“Kepak’s superior quality products as well as their customer service are what set them apart from other alternatives for us. We started with just 4 products, but that’s now grown to over 30 and counting. Kepak regularly goes above and beyond, for example their integrated promotional support on the Danubius Gastro tradeshow in Bratislava every year”
“We chose Kepak’s products because of their taste and superior quality. We’ve completely changed to all Kepak products and have never looked back. Our key contact has been a tremendous support to us and is always at the other end of the phone should we need anything. We would recommend Kepak to anyone in the business”
“The new Big Al’s Burger Bar offers us better quality products, with a great menu offering at a competitive price. The products are both quick and easy to cook from frozen, with all the quality of fresh produce. Being able to cook the products straight from frozen also helps us to reduce waste, which is always a positive.”
“We have been thrilled with the feedback from our customer’s which was that Big Al’s has ‘the best taste’ and it’s the way to go’. Big Al’s has offered us the best value and grown the business significantly. I would recommend them to anyone in the business and Kepak always goes above and beyond to support me and my business”
“The only comments we ever get are how great the burgers are”
