Our Story
BM Foods is part of the Indigo Food Group (IFG), a group of food manufacturing companies offering an extensive range of cooked meats, British and regionally sourced chicken and savoury pastry products including pies, pasties, sausage rolls, slices, quiches, and frittatas for customers in the retail and food service sectors.
BM Foods was the first business in the Group, founded by Mark Woodington and Peter Hobbs in 2003. Today, BM Foods employs 230 staff and has a turnover in excess of £50 million. Operating 5 days a week, it has a processing capacity of 40 tonnes of cooked meats per day.
The Indigo Way
IFG is a lean, growth-focused group that uses fresh thinking to produce high-quality foods safely at exceptional value. We focus on being dynamic, efficient and entrepreneurial, which is made possible by our privately owned status. We can make quick, smart decisions to fuel future success. New opportunities are embraced, processes are perfected and profits are reinvested to drive future growth.
These values and operating practices flow through BM Foods, the original company in the now larger IFG Group.
Thanks to our agile business model, we are highly responsive to our customers' needs and ambitions. We can adapt and scale our operations to meet any requirement, whilst maintaining our exceptionally high-quality production standards, including our BRC AA+ and Red Tractor Accreditation.
