Quality control
We are committed to supply our customers with frozen food products that conform to stringent conditions of hygiene and control to meet statutory, legal and customer requirements - whether you're in retail, food service or manufacturing.
We ensure that our supplier partners use documented quality management systems and effectively use Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) principles at all stages of manufacture. Many of our suppliers have attained third party accreditation such as BRC / IFS / ISO and many of the growers have attained EUREPGAP. If there's a quality standard to meet, we meet it.
Packaging
With so many lines within the frozen category being more of an impulse buy at retail, packaging plays an increasing role in motivating consumers to purchase. At MDC and our manufacturing partners, this is recognised as an important part of our product offer.
Our packaging scope and flexibility is one of our key advantages. From a standard polythene pillow bag or a laminated standable bag with a zip closure to an individual portion pack or multi-pack, we are able to provide it all. Our individual consumer trays, bowls and punnets come in various sizes to suit the product and required weight, and our packaging lines can box or sleeve these packaging options to suit the product concerned. All of our packaging is recyclable and designed to meet packaging reduction principles.
Operations
At MDC Foods we pride ourselves on our supply chain excellence. By setting the standards high, we are able to offer and deliver the best possible service to our customers, in line with their delivery requirements.
By fully understanding the needs of our customers we ensure that we select the most efficient route from field to fork, which in turn helps us to keep our carbon footprint low.
As part of our business strategy we are constantly reviewing our supply chain processes to ensure they are aligned with future customer requirements. This not only contributes to their business growth, but also adds strength to our business relations.
