Where sustainability
Meets flavour

Every pack saves surplus fruit from waste.

To ensure a steady supply of fruit, farmers grow 25% extra to offset unpredictable weather, pests, and diseases, resulting in regular surplus production.
Wasting fresh, edible food means losing not just the food but also the time, energy, resources, and care that went into making it.
By using these ingredients, you are actively reducing food waste and using fruit for good!
The Chichester Food & Drink Company has rescued over 110,000 kg of surplus fruit since 2021.

FAQs

How do the 'RESQ fruit powders' work?

The powders evenly distribute in mixes without settling during baking. Versatile across food applications like fruit bars, protein bars, ice cream, and yoghurts, they deliver robust flavour compared to freeze-dried alternatives. Their soft texture and easy spreadability make them suitable for both sweet and savoury products, including successful trials in sausage rolls and scotch eggs.

How do these products stack up against freeze-dried alternatives?

The Chichester Food and Drink Company's unique drying process allows more fresh fruit per kilo, creating a competitively priced product. By using RESQ ingredients, customers can champion sustainability and help consumers make greener choices.

How do the 'Nice Slice' garnishes work?

This range of air-dried fruit slices can be used directly in hot and cold drinks; including gin and tonic, cocktails and warm water. Served straight from the packet to the glass (or mug!), simply add a slice and let it infuse your beverage. Intense and vibrant flavour is released as soon as it begins to hydrate in the drink, providing a convenient and waste-reducing alternative to fresh citrus. No mess, no chopping and no labour - plus easy ambient storage, sold in resealable bags.
