COSTA STARTS ROLL OUT OF CHOP’D SALADS ACROSS LONDON STORES

The nation’s favourite coffee shop, Costa, has announced that it will be rolling out its offering with premium salad brand, Chop’d, to a further twelve London stores following a successful trial in 2015.

The trial, which launched in six London stores last summer, proved highly popular and Costa will now increase the healthy food offering to a total of eighteen stores across the capital.

Working with London-based Chop’d, a company that is committed to great quality, enables Costa to enhance its menu offer of healthy, fresh food to complement its handcrafted coffee and provide real choice for its customers.

The further roll out will see the Chop’d Jerk Chicken, Tuna Niçoise, Feta & Lentil, Parma Ham & Mozzarella and Falafel & Hummus salads appear across select stores this week.

Caroline Harris, UK&I Marketing Director at Costa said, “Customers responded positively to the partnership and love the new variety of salads on offer. Costa are committed to serving healthy food options and the Chop’d partnership demonstrates how our customers are at the heart of every decision we make”.

Eddie Holmes, Managing Director of Chop'd said, “We are delighted to have been handpicked by Costa to be their salad partner. It really is a great fit due to our joint passion for using the best ingredients, delighting our customers and of course both being born and bred in London.

“To think that our food will be tasted by a far wider audience really excites us and helps us on our mission to offer the best salads, soups and stews the UK has ever tasted.”
