The Global Family Business Champions

The Pantry Win For The Third Successive Year

The Pantry walked away with the Growing Business of the Year and Innovator of the Year awards at The Growing Business Awards 2024 – marking an unprecedented third successive triumph for the Hillingdon-based contract caterer.


After a year in which they won 35 new contracts, welcomed over 200 new employees and generated many millions of pounds more in turnover, The Pantry beat out a host of other businesses from across the U.K to the prizes, capping a stellar year for the family-owned company.


It’s also marked the third year in a row that The Pantry took home a trophy from The Growing Business Awards, having won the Family Business of the Year award in 2022, and Growing Business of the Year in 2023.


Since 1998, the Growing Business Awards have been bringing together and honouring some of the UK’s most outstanding entrepreneurs and high-growth businesses. Consistent high-quality nominees, numerous categories and a finely-honed judging process have ensured the Growing Business Awards have made a name for themselves as a leading judge of past, current and future entrepreneurial success.


Managing Director Luke Consiglio reflected, “I feel like Pep Guardiola! Not only to win for a third year in a row, but to enjoy our most successful awards night in two of the most competitive categories makes me immensely proud."


"We’ve taken our little business, that started as a sandwich shop on Hayes High Street, and turned it into one of the largest independently-owned contract caterers in the country. These past three years at the Growing Business Awards have reflected what I always dreamed The Pantry would be; innovative, growing, and consistently successful.”
