2 Sisters Food Group has donated thousands of food products to the NHS and other charitable initiatives across the country to say thank you for their efforts during the current crisis.

Businesses from across its wider Group have ensured that NHS Trusts up and down the country, as well as food banks and other charitable groups, have been supplied with food during the national crisis.

Hundreds of colleagues, in receipt of ‘thank you’ packages from the business, have also decided to donate their goods to local deserving causes.

The company has supported a number of charitable causes, including celebrity chef Tom Kerridge’s ‘Meals for Marlow’ campaign which supports local healthcare workers, other frontline workers and deserving people within the community.

“Whether it’s Fox’s Biscuits for many NHS Trusts or care homes, or a local food bank or other charity organisations, it’s really humbling to see our colleagues rallying in such challenging times to say a simple ‘thank you’ to those that need it most.”

It has also donated hundreds of thousands of boxes of Foxes Biscuits to hospitals, care homes, charities and food banks across the UK.

Holland’s pies, which is also part of the group, is helping to deliver food parcels across North East Manchester by providing thirty food parcels every week.

Ronald Kers, 2 Sisters Food Group CEO, said: “We’re proud to play a big role in helping to feed the nation during this time of crisis. But as a large food business making different products at many locations across the UK, we are also delighted to be able to put a smile on people’s faces during such difficult times.

“It is simply amazing that our local teams have decided to give something back to the communities in which they work.

“Whether it’s Fox’s Biscuits for many NHS Trusts or care homes, or a local food bank or other charity organisations, it’s really humbling to see our colleagues rallying in such challenging times to say a simple ‘thank you’ to those that need it most.”
