Culinary Growth at Nestlé with New Development Kitchen

We’re investing in our culinary capabilities with a new state-of-the-art development kitchen in our Gatwick Office.

 Exciting New Horizons in Culinary Innovation

This month, we are thrilled to announce the grand unveiling of our brand-new development kitchen at the Gatwick Park House office, a significant milestone in our commitment to advancing our culinary ambitions in the UK.

This cutting-edge facility serves as both a development space and a cookery school, meticulously designed and equipped with top-tier professional and food retail kitchen equipment. Featuring six fully equipped cooking stations and a demonstration area for live streaming, this dynamic environment is a vibrant hub of creativity, offering exceptional opportunities to showcase our exquisite ingredients and innovative recipes.

Our new kitchen enables us to dedicate more resources to the creation and testing of new product developments. It fosters collaboration with our partners, empowering us to innovate and respond to the ever-evolving preferences and tastes of our customers.

“This is an important step in our culinary journey. Investing in a development kitchen provides an excellent backdrop to showcase the incredible ingredients we have across our portfolio, including iconic brands like MAGGI and Garden Gourmet.  I’m looking forward to welcoming many more of our customers into our office to collaborate on innovate projects and really push the boundaries of industry trends.”

Adjacent to the kitchen, we have also introduced a versatile room with a capacity for 20 individuals, featuring full-height glass screening that provides an unobstructed view of our talented chefs in action.

This adaptable space is not only ideal for hosting exciting cooking competitions, such as the prestigious Toque d’Or, but it also serves as an excellent venue for sales meetings and team-building activities.

The inspiring atmosphere encourages creativity and collaboration, making it the perfect setting for brainstorming sessions and strategic discussions.

 

We look forward to the incredible innovations and culinary masterpieces that will emerge from this inspiring space!
