Our Story

Starting as part of the Solihull Council family in 1974, Solihull Catering Services has witnessed the transformation of school food right before our eyes.

Gone are the days of starchy, forgettable dishes. Now, we pride ourselves on offering wholesome, oven-baked meals that are as tasty as they are nourishing.

Our journey isn’t just about food; it’s about evolving with our community’s needs, ensuring that every child gets not just a meal, but a plateful of goodness to fuel their day.”

At the heart of what we do is a simple idea:

Our children deserve the best start in life.

For us, each plate of food is a promise to take care of your young ones. Our goal is not about profits; we’re about making sure children grow up strong and curious.

Being part of the local school community means we know what your kids love and need. It’s not just about tasty meals – through our choices, we hope to teach a little about looking after our community and planet.

It’s all about giving every child the right start, one meal at a time.
