About COOK

COOK was founded over 20 years ago by Edward Perry and Dale Penfold. To this day they remain a family owned business with family values at its core.

The founding mission was `to make meals and puddings using the same ingredients and techniques as you would use at home.' Despite many changes in the economic climate and on the high-street, their purpose has and will never change. They are ambitious for the future and together, want to create a remarkable food company that is a force for good.

COOK are passionate about employee development and take training seriously. They invest heavily in both professional and vocational training so that everyone can become the best versions of themselves. They encourage those who want to, to develop and grow with the company.

COOK are proud of their no bonus culture. Instead, they operate a COOK profit share, which sees 5% of their pre-tax profits given back to the employees, with the remaining profits going back into the company. This ensured every employee receives a share of the profits based on their salary. They believe this encourages a shared goal of organisational success and a one team/community culture.
