Fantastic business that I wish all the best too and will be using a lot more as it develops but not the fastest delivery. A little lacking in stock being available. Open ended on delivery dates/times.... See more

Just so so helpful from start to finish. Couldn't believe the range of products and the affordability. We're a community cafe so really tight budgets to meet and Adrian & Neil have been so great... See more

Audrey, as well as the 90l home compostable binbags you purchased from us recently, we also sell a range of smaller, home compostable caddy liners too. Thank you for such positive feedback about the product.

Glad to be supporting Curry Love, your menu looks so amazing. Love the idea of tie up with Wo Wo's wild campsite this summer #perfectcombo

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Searching for an environmentally friendly product was worth it.

Difficult to initially find the product but once found, the price is reasonable for the quantity and functionality. You do have to buy a big catering size but plus is that it should last for a long guilt free period.

Thanks again Lily, your Korean fried chicken at the Red Barn Supper Club looks spicy tasty. Glad our range of compostable sauce pots and noodle boxes came in useful.

pizza boxes not just for pizzas . Great company

Brilliant service, delivery quality and price
I use these to ship frames not pizzas but they work perfectly and with a bit of ribbon around them I am getting great feedback on the new packaging... great alternative to an expensive gift box

Excellent Service in Testing Times

Adrian was on-line when I was looking for a take away solution for our restaurant. I was keen to reflect our quality as a restaurant, in our new take away service.
The order arrived as promised on time, and was exactly the quality products advertised. I have since re-ordered and highly recommend Adrian and the team.

So good to hear such feedback Sarah, thank you. The Element clamshell lunchboxes are really premium feeling products, yet at a great price (microwavable and biodegradable too). Good luck as we return to some sort of 'normal'.

Great to be working with you on your new venture too. There are so many customers now that are looking for alternatives to single use plastics, and thats exactly why we setup last year, to make these alternatives more available, easy to buy, at great prices. We'll follow up your recent feedback too.

Thanks Clarke, those hot food boxes are really adaptable for all sorts of things (explains why they are so popular at the moment too). Great that we could help you with your subsequent orders too.

A great company and quick service

A great company and quick service. It is brilliant to be able to offer our customers an ecologically friendly container. I have been using the 'tin foil' trays and hate the fact that I am encouraging this excavation of natural metals out of the ground; it is good to try something new that works. Be mindful of the size you order is all I can say. As I have been using the tin containers, which fit a good sized portion of chips, peas and Scampi (for example), I decided to try the 3 compartment disposable form here. Unfortunately, it doesn't all fit and will have cost me more because I need one container for scampi and peas and then another to fit the chips. Entirely my fault of course, I did not research well enough and it will all depend on what you are serving of course and how big your portions are but I have for now gone back to foil containers for my main meals and use the singleuse alternatives for smaller meals and starters. The soup/ice-cream tubs are brilliant.

Thanks for your feedback Vanessa, as a startup its good to hear how we can further improve things. We are continuously updating our product information. You may want to consider the square lunch box with lid, which would give you a little more space?

This is such a great site

This is such a great site. With no minimum order, I was able to order a few to make sure they were the right size and exactly what I was after. It's so easy to use, I don't know why more companies haven't switched to more eco-friendly packaging when it's so easy to do!

Christine, hope the containers worked well for your 'cook for the NHS' initiative and we can help you and your fellow 'furloughedfoodies' at some point in the future as we return to some sort of 'normal'.

What can I say.... SUA, you are amazing!

Having used SUA for several months now on a regular basis I can recommend them 100%. Adrian has been an absolute star in making sure what I need is there and doing his upmost to get it to me as quickly as possible (even during Covid-19).

I have explained my needs to him (I make vegan savoury muffins) and he has done his best to source the products I need at a very reasonable price.

It's all about small businesses supporting each other. I will continue to use SUA in the future as they have been so helpful. Well done on supporting our planet and us indi businesses.
