Great Food began life in a small factory unit in Watford in 1999. The market response to their high-quality, innovative range was exciting and expansive and it soon became clear that the growing demand could not be contained in the existing premises.

Great Food had already formed a close relationship with Gilbert’s Kosher Foods for both raw material supply and distribution to their major supermarket customers. In 2001, a new company was formed with two of the Directors of Gilbert’s and it was decided to expand Gilbert’s current state of the art, EC approved plant in Milton Keynes to house a new fish and vegetarian delicatessen manufacturing facility to the highest national and European health and safety requirements.

We can now boast to having the only Kosher and Halal production facility to operate at the higher global level standard of the British Retail Consortium. In addition to this we are also approved suppliers to the National Health and UK Prison Services, under STS Technical Accreditation.

We operate to the religious standards of Union of Orthodox Rabbis of Britain, (Kedassia Board), the United Synagogue Kashrut Division, (London Beth Din), and the Halal Food Authority.

Our aim is to manufacture traditional and generic food suitable for all consumers:

“YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE JEWISH TO EAT KOSHER FOOD”
