Revolution Kitchen, a Leicestershire based vegan food producer, has entered a formal consultation with colleagues regarding the closure of its Melton Mowbray site.

The Pate Road site is under threat of closure following Revolution Kitchen’s decision to begin a formal consultation. The business produces plant-based meat alternatives and is owned by manufacturer Samworth Brothers.

Revolution Kitchen is a supplier for vegan and vegetarian brands Wicked Kitchen, THIS and Quorn.

Food Management Today contacted Samworth Brothers for comment. A spokesperson for the company said: “We very much regret that we are consulting with colleagues regarding the potential closure of our Revolution Kitchen site in Pate Road, Melton Mowbray.

“No decisions have been made as yet. In the event of a closure, it is hoped there will be opportunities for a good number of individuals to redeploy to one of our many other sites in the Leicestershire area.”

At the moment it is not confirmed that the site will close.
