Putting the art into artisan baking

We’re proudly shining the spotlight on the most sustainable partners from the Easenmyne Foodservice range.

 

Speciality Breads have been putting the ‘art’ in artisan baking for over 20 years and have now set their sights on becoming the most sustainable bakery in the UK. To help them achieve this, they have embarked on an exciting new partnership with Wildfarmed, who are equally invested in protecting the planet. Their regenerative wheat is farmed with a focus on healthy soils, thriving ecosystems, and positive farming communities, which not only improves sustainability, but also produces a fantastically flavourful flour!

 

Read below to find out more about Speciality Breads and their sustainability journey…

1. Give a choice

Offering a selection of hot and cold beverages is likely to be highly appreciated by all staff. It doesn’t have to be overcomplicated.

Freshly chilled or sparkling water, whether a point of use water dispenser, like the Borg & Overström tap systems, or a water cooler is essential.

A great coffee machine is also a necessity – we love the simplicity and compactness of the high-tech Cimbali S15.

To finish off, a variety of Birchall Tea and some alternative milks are a great starting point.

2. Think Quality

A cup of coffee (or a few!), is a part of most people’s daily routines, bringing them a bit of joy and some fuel to kickstart their morning or give a pick-me-up in the afternoon.

Choosing a quality product is an ideal way to show care and add a little perk. We recommend the Lavazza Expert Coffee Beans range, which offers different indulgent, beautifully curated mixes and roasts. The Lavazza Professional Bean to Cup coffee systems are a great accompaniment, available exclusively from Fox in the Channel Islands.

Additionally, our La Cimbali automatic coffee machines produce exceptional, barista-style coffees, ensuring each cup delivers the rich, authentic experience your staff and customers deserve.

3. Happy, Healthy Hydration

Keeping hydrated is vital for our overall health. Start with the best: Borg & Overstrom water systems offer premium solutions for providing fresh, clean water in your workplace, encouraging everyone to stay properly hydrated. We also offer sparkling water options to add a refreshing twist to your hydration choices.

Although many love a caffeine fix, don’t forget there are some other great options too: decaf is becoming ever more popular, and speciality teas, alongside the classic English breakfast tea, are all super choices to encourage a useful drink stop!

At Fox, we supply a premium range of Birchall Tea and other products that can give your coffee corner an extra boost of variety, showing that your company is committed to employee culture, health and well-being.

4. Be Sustainable

As many workplaces are becoming eco-conscious, providing biodegradable cups, glassware, mugs and giving staff refillable bottles, are eco-friendly solutions. Setting these things up along-side your coffee machine and point-of-use water dispenser will not only reduce unnecessary waste but will also minimise the space required for refrigeration. Many companies are making a mindful effort to offer a selection of healthy snacks and beverages in their vending machines to improve employee well-being.

At Fox, we partner with sustainability-focused tea and coffee manufacturers such as Birchall Tea and Lavazza. These brands are committed to ethical sourcing and sustainable practices, ensuring that their products are environmentally friendly and support fair trade. By choosing products from Fox, you can enhance your workplace’s commitment to sustainability.

5. Create Café Culture

Creating a cosy and relaxing area for your coffee corner is a super way to promote good well-being and encourage the chances for some cross departmental interaction.

Placing some comfy seating and tables and chairs which encourage coming together for conversations are helpful solutions to get people to stop and a take a mindful moment or share a moment with another – and research from Psychology Today states that short breaks help boost productivity!
