As this week was National School Meals Week, we wanted to highlight the important role that school meals play in supporting children’s mental well-being, as well as their physical and academic growth. By offering nutritious, premium pre-prepared meals, we help students stay energised, focused, and ready to learn. At apetito | Wiltshire Farm Foods, we understand that when meals are fun, kids are more excited to eat them. That’s why we create themed menus that spark their imagination and curiosity. For example, during World Book Day, we served dishes like Gruffalo Tusks (Fish Goujons) and Jack’s Magic Beans (Bean Chilli) – meals that brought their favourite stories to life.   School meals provide more than just fuel for the body – they help children feel their best, mentally and physically, ensuring they thrive in the classroom. #NSMW #SchoolCatering #MakingARealDifference

In the UK alone, 4.4 million people live with diabetes, and there are an estimated 1.2 million individuals who may have type 2 diabetes but have not yet been diagnosed. Diabetes can affect anyone, regardless of age or background, and its impact goes beyond just blood sugar levels. If not managed effectively, it can lead to serious health complications. Making informed dietary choices can significantly impact the management of diabetes and contribute to overall health and well-being. At apetito | Wiltshire Farm Foods we are committed to catering to everyone’s nutritional needs, ensuring that those living with diabetes have access to delicious and balanced meal options. #NationalDiabetesDay #MakingARealDifference #InclusiveDining

This Malnutrition Awareness Week, we’re highlighting the serious impacts of malnutrition, a condition that affects health, increases disease risk, delays recovery, and can lead to lasting health issues. While anyone can be affected, older adults, those with chronic health conditions, people with swallowing difficulties, and individuals facing social isolation or limited income are particularly vulnerable. Eating well is essential for health and well-being. That’s why we work closely with the Malnutrition Task Force to make sure our meals meet complex nutritional needs while remaining delicious and appealing. Our specialised ranges, like Mini Meals Extra and Texture Modified meals, offer smaller, nutrient-dense portions and modified textures tailored for people with reduced appetites or swallowing difficulties. At apetito | Wiltshire Farm Foods, we’re committed to making a real difference, providing nutritious meals to those who need them most. #UKMAW24 #MalnutritionAwarenessWeek #MakingARealDifference

Today, we remember those who bravely sacrificed their lives. We will join the nation in observing a two-minute silence at 11 am. #RemembranceDay #ArmisticeDay #LestWeForget

Happy National STEM Day! Today, we recognise the important role that Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics play in our lives. National STEM Day serves as a reminder as to why STEM education and careers matter. At apetito | Wiltshire Farm Foods, many of our employees hold STEM degrees that have led them to rewarding careers where they make a real difference. STEM subjects are not just areas of study; they are the driving force behind innovation, progress, and effective problem-solving. As we celebrate this day, we encourage everyone to explore the opportunities that STEM offers and consider how these skills can shape the future.   #STEMDay #Science #Technology #Engineering #Maths #MakingARealDifference

As part of this year's seasonal menu, we are proud to introduce two new venison dishes: a rich Venison Pie topped with golden, flaky pastry and a hearty Venison Hotpot with sliced potato topping. These dishes bring exciting flavours to our festive selection and align with our commitment to sustainability and nutrition.  Wild venison provides a sustainable alternative to traditional red meats, helping to protect biodiversity by reducing over-foraging in woodlands. From a nutritional standpoint, venison is nutrient-rich, providing high levels of protein, iron, and essential vitamins, all while being a lean, low-fat meat. This Christmas, we’re pleased to be making a real difference by offering our customers delicious and nutritious meal options that also support our wider sustainability goals. #FestiveMenu #SupportingSustainability #NewProducts

Last Thursday marked the final closure of our “Pie Site”, where apetito | Wiltshire Farm Foods has been making pies, pasties, bakes and sausage rolls for the past four decades. As our oldest business, the team at the Pie Site built a strong community, supporting one another and consistently delivering high-quality products.
