HAMM programme starts in public sector catering kitchens

The HAMM – Hungarian Ingredients in Public Sector Catering Kitchens – programme started with the three top players in the market, Hungast Group, Univer and Gyermelyi (the latter two are both Hungarian Product trademark users) joining forces. From the 2017-2018 school year the products of Hungarian manufacturers will be used as cooking ingredients in larger quantities in the kitchens of school and workplace cafeterias.

According to Zsolt Páger, business development director of public sector catering service provider Hungast Group – they feed 180,000 people daily at 700 cafeterias in 11 counties – it is of utmost importance to use Hungarian-made cooking ingredients and to popularise them among partners. 20 percent of Univer’s sales are realised by buyers from the culinary sector. //
