Elior UK wins LMB contract

Elior UK has been awarded a contract by the Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology (LMB) in Cambridge to deliver catering services for over 600 research, support and contract staff. The company will provide this across breakfast and lunch within the main restaurant area, as well as hosting a grab-and-go shop offering sandwiches and cakes that are available all day.

Elior will roll out its Foodsmiths concept, which is based on three core pillars: provenance, craft and quality. It will also deliver a daily catering service to meeting rooms, in addition to events catering for between 20 and 200 people.

'World-class catering services'
Claire Small, director of innovation for Elior, said: “We are thrilled to deliver our world-class catering services to such an important and diverse hub at LMB. This partnership is further evidence of the adaptive stance we take with our diverse range of our clients.”

Dr Stephen Holmes, head of estates for LMB, added: “Our aim in looking for a provider was to find someone who could provide quality in contract delivery, food standards and sustainability. Elior demonstrated a clear understanding of our needs and plugged in their own levels of technology and programmes that suited exactly what we were looking for.”
