About Saladworks

We produce ready meals for a variety of categories but are mainly focused on Italian, Health and Premium ranges.

This sector accounts for over a quarter of the total UK ready meals market. Our extensive product portfolio uses only the finest raw materials across each of our ranges.

Since becoming a dedicated ready meal site, we have earned three PAPA (Pizza And Pasta Association) awards for our innovative Italian products. We have also picked up a Q Award for Vegetarian product of the year.

183 products are supplied to our retail customers
The amount of beef Saladworks uses in a year weighs the equivalent of 61 double decker buses.
