EHL Ingredients Boosts Management Team With New Appointment

Stockport-based food ingredient supplier, EHL Ingredients, welcomes Natalie Daley into its growing team as Technical Manager.

Natalie Daley will be responsible for product specifications, overseeing quality and food safety procedures and ensuring all food standards policies are met. As Technical Manager, she will create, amend and adapt product specifications, both for existing ingredients and new herb and spice blends, as well as oversee all quality systems to ensure they meet regulatory standards. With a Bsc in Food and Nutrition from Manchester Metropolitan University, Natalie brings with her three years’ industry experience.

The latest addition to the team is part of EHL Ingredients’ on-going business growth plan, aiming for sales of £7 million by the end of 2016, and brings the staff total to 30 at the head office on Broadstone Industrial Estate in Reddish, Stockport. Natalie will report to joint Managing Director, Tasneem Backhouse, who is delighted to welcome her to the team.

Tasneem commented: “Natalie is joining us at an exciting time for the company. Her valuable technical expertise and knowledge of policies and standards will support the company as a whole to ensure we continue to deliver high quality products, as we plan to increase our supplier base, and extend our product portfolio and range of international herb and spice blends.

“As we enter our twentieth year of business, we have set our sights on achieving sales of £7 million – our highest target to date. We are confident about our progress as business and are proud of our achievements to date in this highly competitive market place.”

In addition to Natalie’s appointment, EHL is pleased to announce promotions within the company. Susan Baron will now be working as EHL’s Customer Service Manager, Sherill Simm has been promoted to Account Manager, and Andrew Pickering will now act as Technical Administrator.

Amanda Garnett has also been appointed as Purchasing Assistant.

The company supplies around 300 food ingredients and boasts a 200-strong organic range as well as over 70 custom blends. EHL Ingredients’ products are sold into the food manufacturing, wholesale, retail and catering sectors and used in end products, such as breads and bakery items, ready meals, healthy snacks and soups and sauces. They are also sold to speciality food shops, delis and organic retailers across the UK.

EHL Ingredients was awarded its fifth grade A BRC certification once again in December last year. This gives EHL’s customers the reassurance of the company’s quality and safety management processes and opens up new growth opportunities for the business.
