Dry Powder Blending, Contract Packing & Ingredient Supply Under One Roof

A wealth of experience gained over the course of the last 60 years and more makes Richard Whittaker Ltd the go-to company for all your dry product handling; whether it be ingredient supply, blending or packing services, we can provide a ‘one-stop shop’ which brings customers back time and again when they want to launch their next project.

Housed in an 86000 sq ft facility close to the M60 motorway network, we are ideally situated to transfer your products the length and breadth of the country.

We employ around 120 staff which means that we are large enough to cope with the demands of big businesses requiring huge tonnage, yet still small enough to care about those who require lower-volume productions.

In practical terms we operate 7 separate blenders and 20 packing lines with auger fillers, volumetric cup fillers and efficient form, fill and seal machines. We also run Ishida head weighing machines all of which allows us to pack weights from 5g to 1000kg and into a broad range of packaging types including bags, packs, tubs and sachets. Whatever your requirement Richard Whittaker Ltd have the means to deliver it.

Consistently High Standards

We believe in total quality management and this is proven in our independent accreditations and our high levels of customer satisfaction. The Richard Whittaker management team is committed to providing high quality products, a high level of service and competitive prices.

The team not only controls and maintains these standards, but also continues to develop them in order to continually meet customers’ needs. Our allergen-awareness and HACCP procedures are an integral part of how we successfully plan and produce.

Versatile Food Industry Expertise

We pride ourselves on being versatile and in 2006 acquired Innovative Solutions (UK) Ltd which, coupled with our own expertise, allowed us to satisfy the increasing demand for allergen-free products under the Pure Gluten Free brand.

Add our James Brown & Co panda brand, a division of Richard Whittaker Ltd which produces high quality blended products such as jellies, custard blends and baking ingredients along with herbs and spices to service food wholesalers and catering suppliers.

Richard Whittaker is renowned for the blending and contract packing services we have been offering to clients for decades. We really can do it all.
