About COOK

COOK is a pioneering frozen food company, a certified B Corporation. This year we won the Best Companies Number One Food and Drink company to work for. Our business is purpose driven and values led: we believe all companies should be seeking to make their business a force for good in society.

Since 1997 we’ve been making remarkable food for your freezer, prepared by hand at our Kitchens in Kent (savoury) and Somerset (puddings) using the same ingredients and techniques you would at home. It means our food looks and tastes homemade (maybe even a bit better).

We have 91 shops and counting across the UK; concessions in 600+ farm shops and independent retailers; and a fast-growing home delivery business.

Our brand needs to be remarkable, handmade/homemade, foodie, honest and authentic, with a strong independent voice and look that enables us to stand apart from the supermarkets.
