Freemans Event Partners (FEP), the multi-service event solutions provider, is expanding its existing partnership with Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), owners of Lord’s Cricket Ground, to provide accredited workforce culinary services to all employees on matchdays.
FEP has signed a multi-year contract with MCC, that will see it providing more than 2,000 meals on matchdays throughout the cricket season.
An addition to the existing partnership for which FEP delivers food and beverage to more than 250,000 spectators every year, the new accredited workforce culinary contract will cover the preparation and delivery of a range of hot dining meal options such as lemon & thyme chicken, chilli con carne, vegetarian Thai green curry and many more to the iconic cricket ground’s workforce at more than 12 matches this season.
The new contract will be in place for all fixtures at the ground, including all London Spirit home matches and the finals day of The Hundred, as well as England’s ODI against New Zealand in September. A team of FEP chefs will freshly prepare and cook up to three meals a day for employees, providing a different menu each matchday, that caters to all allergies and preferences.
The agreement with Lord’s is part of FEP’s culinary division expansion across accredited workforce dining with a range of event clients, including Allianz Stadium, the upcoming Major League Baseball London Series at the London Stadium and the Burghley Horse Trials.
