At the recent Compass Suppliers Seminar, equipment manufacturer, Electrolux Professional, was recognised for being the most innovative company that the Compass Group does business with.

Working exclusively with the contract-caterer for many years, the award was given in recognition of the "continued product innovation and development Electrolux has shown during this time".

The judging panel, made up of the executive board of Compass, explained that the areas Electrolux excelled in to win the award were:

• Its partnership with the Sussex Training Kitchen at Goodwood Racecourse
• The Eco Friendly Induction Kitchen at the Compass Innovation Centre in Chertsey
• The joint work done with Compass on the High Speed Grill (HSG) Panini
• The innovation when partnering with the Jockey Club UK to win a partnering deal

Andrew Jones, managing director, Electrolux Professional, said: "We are very proud to have been recognised by Compass as the most innovative company they work with. It is a reflection on the whole team, and each team member has contributed in some way to winning this accolade, so well done to everyone at Electrolux UK.

"Our product development is continually pushing the boundaries of innovation and we aim to continue to provide Compass and all our other customers with products that help their businesses thrive."
