Innovation / Product development
We place a high level of priority on research and development programmes - they are, after all, the basis of
continuing success for market-led products in all trade sectors, including multiple retailers. Often, totally
new products are developed in close association with existing customers who appreciate the skill and
confidentiality that Phoenix offers in meeting the demands of tomorrow's marketplace.

Phoenix Foods specialises in the development of nutritionally balanced products with emphasis on the use of
natural ingredients wherever appropriate in order to meet today's consumer preferences. A further progression
of this is our continuing drive into organic and fairly traded products.
In this context, Phoenix Foods has been closely involved in the reformulation and refinement of existing
products as well as the development of many commercially successful dietetic products.
Furthermore, a record of sustained growth has enabled us to invest in the most up-to-date production facilities -
comprising dispensary, manufacturing, packing, warehousing and distribution - all located in adjoining
areas within over 45,000 sq ft of modern premises.

Manufacturing facilities include stainless steel bulk mixers with vibrating screen sieves and electronic
metal detectors. Microprocessor controlled horizontal and vertical form-and-fill sachet packing (including
twin sachet and gas-flushed sachet options). Hot glue cartons, composite drums and plastic jars. Catering
and wholesale packs from bag-in-box through to 1/2 tonne bulk bags.

All packing options are backed by modern microprocessor check-weighing and ink-jet or hot foil coding
facilities.
