Hot-holding manufacturer nets double award win

Flexeserve, the leading hot-holding manufacturer and food-to-go experts, scored twice at Leicester City’s King Power Stadium -  with a double win at the LeicestershireLive Business Awards 2023.

Flexeserve has won ‘Business of the Year’ and the ‘Global Britain Award’ at the awards night hosted by Olympic silver medallist, Iwan Thomas.

Regarded as the industry’s Home of Hot-holding, Flexeserve partners with the likes of Asda, Greggs, Pret, Sainsbury’s and many more.

Flexeserve is also a patron of the Greater Birmingham Transatlantic Chamber of Commerce.

Jamie Joyce, global CEO of Flexeserve, said: “We’re very humbled to have won these awards on a spectacular night for our team and the local business community. In recent years, we’ve developed into a truly international business, as we advance the world of food-to-go.

“This has been driven by all that our team achieves here in Hinckley, Leicestershire – a shining example of this county‘s potential.

“In 2021, we won LeicestershireLive’s Award for Excellence in Manufacturing – it was an amazing feeling for our team to receive such well-deserved recognition. Returning in 2023 to be named Business of the Year and win the Global Britain Award, which acknowledges our international success, is just incredible.”

Flexeserve saw off fierce competition from well-respected local businesses to be crowned 2023’s Business of the Year, sponsored by Aspire Pharma.

The manufacturer was also recognised for its international achievements with the Global Britain Award, selected from a shortlist that included Access Group and Watches of Switzerland.

The award reflected Flexeserve’s expansion into the United States with the establishment of its American subsidiary, Flexeserve Inc.

The firm launched its U.S. HQ and Culinary Support Center in Southlake, Dallas, Texas - the next step in a long-term strategy to develop its support for customers across the Americas.

Warwick Wakefield, director of customer experience, said: “Flexeserve is the hot-holding partner to major international brands, such as Pret, Circle K and Yo! Sushi. We’re proud to represent the very best in British manufacturing and be the world leader in our field of grab-and-go hot-holding.

“Over the past year, we’ve strategically developed our international sales infrastructure, flown the flag at exhibitions around the globe and established our U.S. footprint in Dallas. These commitments to our export growth drove our entry for the Global Britain Award, and to win it is incredible!”
