As energy in the field of football is at its seasonal high, a Hereford-based catering firm, Ascari Catering, has won a contract to supply Hereford United’s Edgar Street stadium.

Having previously taken control of the stadium’s sponsor and hospitality services, the new agreement will now see Ascari assume the full catering function of the establishment, manning all matchday kiosks on the grounds with immediate effect.

Dating back to its inception in 1953, Ascari Catering has earned itself a reputation for quality and service within the city’s catering sector. The company, known for its support of events across the region such as the Royal Welsh Show and the Hay Festival, is notable for its use of the finest local produce and ingredients.

Supporters of the club will have the opportunity to sample the catering firm’s offerings at the pre-season friendly match against Swansea on 13th July 2010, with the range of products available to increase as seasonal momentum accelerates.

Meanwhile Harrison Catering has named Isaiah from Kingswood Primary School as the winner of its ‘Design a School Lunch’ contest. Each year the competition encourages schoolchildren across the London borough of Lambeth to devise lunches that are healthy and well balanced on a nutritional level. Isaiah’s winning creation won her a variety of prizes, including a smoothie machine, basket of fruit, a children’s cookbook and a certificate, in addition to a ‘food fun day’ for the whole school, involving breakfast, an outdoor BBQ lunch and afternoon tea.
