Avara Foods
You might not have heard of us but there’s a good chance you’ve enjoyed our products. We’re one of the UK's leading food businesses, supplying great tasting chicken, turkey and duck products to some of the biggest supermarkets and restaurants in the country.
We own and manage every part of our supply chain; from feed mills and farms, through to processing, packing and distribution. Today our agricultural network spans across 350 farms and nine major operational sites across England and Wales, processing over four million birds per week.
We’re proud to be the only supplier of chicken, turkey and duck with a supply chain that is entirely UK-based. We source our own eggs, grow our own feed and deliver delicious products to shop shelves. Our extensive range covers whole birds, portions, added value, ready to cook, sausages, burgers and meatballs, among other key seasonal categories.
We may only have been formed in 2018, but we have a history and heritage that dates back to the early 1960s. Formed in a joint venture between Cargill’s UK fresh poultry business and Faccenda, we’ve been able to build on the experience and expertise gained from five decades’ industry service. Being a new, fast-growing, ambitious business doesn’t mean losing touch with our core values; in fact, our responsibility to make a positive impact only gets bigger as we grow. We’re passionate about doing things sustainably and ethically and the wellbeing of our animals, people and community comes first, always.
It’s not what we do that sets us apart, it’s how we do it. Most importantly, it’s our team of dedicated colleagues that make it all possible. Our workforce is a melting pot of skills and expertise, with colleagues from the UK, Europe and beyond. We are proud to be a diverse, inclusive company where people oversee every part of a production process that stretches from farms and factories all the way to the customer’s door. You’ll find our dedicated teams all over the UK, from North Yorkshire to Devon and Wales. Whether it be our agricultural supply chain, processing operations or one of the many support functions that hold our operations together, our people all share a common set of values and a commitment to high quality food.
