About the Business
East West Catering, established in 1988, was originally set up as a women's co-operative, after a group of housewives seeking independence ventured into a business together, hoping for an improved lifestyle for themselves and their families. It all commenced in an industrial factory known as Ryburn mills, in which we supplied fresh hot food to the factory workers. This was ideal given the cold British climate and encouraged the women to let their cultural roots unfold into mouth watering meals. Before long, we were approached by local hospitals such as Calderdale Royal (formally Halifax General and Halifax Infirmary hospital ) with a predicament. Their catering manager mentioned that ethnic minority patients refused the westernised food served in the hospitals and would prefer dishes they would commonly eat at home. Privileged to be aiding the community, we started supplying traditional Punjabi cuisine to the hospitals.
