Fowler Welch helps frozen food firm expand into ambient

Food brand Quorn has expanded its range into the ambient market with Fowler Welch providing an end-to-end supply chain solution.

Quorn’s new range rolls out in Tesco and Asda this month and will be managed through the Fowler Welch facility in Heywood, Greater Manchester.

The development marks Quorn’s first step away from chilled and frozen offerings to introduce an innovative meat-free option into consumers’ cupboards.

Christophe Evo, head of logistics at Quorn, said: “The relationship between Quorn and Fowler Welch has developed from being a simple transactional-based collaboration into a close working business relationship over the last 12 years.

“The Heywood site offers a unique solution across the ambient supply chain and this, in combination with its outstanding customer service, makes Fowler Welch the obvious choice in helping Quorn take this exciting next step.”

Fowler Welch started working with Quorn Foods in 2007.

Nick Hay, CEO Fowler Welch, said: “We have enjoyed a long and successful partnership with Quorn since it joined our operation, initially at the flagship site in Spalding and more recently from the distribution centre in Nuneaton.

“The company has enjoyed steady growth in volume and overall delivery profile ever since and we are delighted to be supporting Quorn as they move into the ambient sector.

“We are committed as always to maintaining the high service levels, management and product growth all our clients have come to expect.”
