Wantage's Valentine Food moves into business park unit

The purpose-built unit is located at the heart of the park, adjacent to Boston House, the serviced office and business centre.

Catering business Valentine Food, established in 2017 by Graeme and Lisa Valentine-Harding, has been selected as the operator.

They also offer corporate lunches and other catering services to the park and wider business community.

Having traded at the park from a small trailer unit for five years, they have already built a loyal customer base.

Mr Valentine-Harding said: "Grove Business Park is a real community and it’s great to be at the heart of it.

"We are looking forward to growing with the park as it expands and even welcoming more people from the wider area to try our great food as we also expand our opening hours."

The catering unit, made of twin converted base container units, can be moved flexibly around the site if required.

Alastair Thomas of development managers ATLP said: "Providing a quality catering facility on site with great food and beverages from a local business was a key objective in transforming the park into an attractive hub for science, technology, and commercial businesses."
