Lancashire County Council partners for sustainable catering goals

10th July 2023

Discover how Lancashire County Council is using Civica Catering Management software to meet some of their most pressing challenges head-on and safeguard services.

Lancashire County Council delivers 66,000 meals per day, providing a traded service to around 520 schools, residential care homes and day care centres across Lancashire and the surrounding areas. More than fifty-five per cent of the food on their menus derives from Lancashire and they are the first local authority caterers to publish a food map identifying where their food supplies come from.

In our case study, Nigel Craine, Head of Schools & Residential Care Catering at Lancashire County Council, explains how they aspire to be the best, what sustainability means to him as a caterer and how Civica Catering Management software is at the heart of everything they do.

Civica technology makes it simple to design menus that meet compliance standards, while also ensuring thorough product traceability. The comprehensive oversight and control it enables has helped Lancashire County Council in establishing its prominent position at the forefront of the catering industry within the educational sector.
