The Co-op food-to-go range has been relaunched by the brand just in time for summertime to offer consumers a way to stay fueled when going about their daily routine. The food range includes wraps, sub sandwiches and pasta salad pots, which are all contained in packaging that has been slimmed down. The products also feature wooden sporks in place of plastic cutlery, where applicable.
Wholesale Category Lead Jonny Lambert spoke on the new Co-op food-to-go range saying, "With more people out and about now, there is a greater demand for food-to-go so it is perfect timing for the launch of the all-new Co-op range. Food-to-go remains a key mission for the convenience market and with this new range available to Nisa partners we believe it places them in a great position to drive more sales in their stores this summer.”
