The partnership supports around 1,200 colleagues with dining, coffee, vending and hospitality services, combining innovative, health‑focused menus with technology‑led solutions designed to enhance the everyday workplace experience.

Sustainability is a core focus of the partnership. The collaboration has already featured a successful on‑site Kitchen Reclaimed pop‑up – a sustainability initiative demonstrating how commonly wasted ingredients can be transformed into creative dishes. Coffee‑ground brownies, vegetable‑peel kimchi and fruit‑and‑veg‑peel chutneys not only help reduce waste but also inspire teams to think differently about food use – lessons that can easily be carried into the home.

All food is now prepared fresh on site each day, supported by an enhanced Grab & Go range and made‑to‑order options at the counter. Refreshed menus and increased choice have been central to meeting client expectations and boosting sales, with health‑focused options and an expanded home‑baking range supporting engagement. Since the start of the partnership, the Elior at Work team has achieved a 50% reduction in fried food across the three sites.

To support quality and customer experience, Elior at Work has implemented the Lolly system – its strategic partner platform for POS, digital and customer‑facing technologies. Fully integrated with Elior’s systems, Lolly enables automated operational reporting, providing real‑time visibility and control across sites. This enhanced data insight supports smoother service delivery and an improved customer experience.

Calum McLaren, divisional managing director at Elior at Work, said:

“We’re excited to bring our catering services to one of Scotland’s most prestigious businesses, William Grant & Sons. Its sites are already benefitting from our creative and sustainable concepts, which, supported by smart technology, will continue to evolve and improve over time.

“Our focus is on creating a workplace food experience that prioritises wellbeing, flavour and variety, and we’re already seeing exciting results.”
