Greencore Group PLC (OTCMKTS:GNCGY) is a leading convenience food manufacturer headquartered in Dublin, Ireland. Specialising in the production of chilled and ambient ready-to-eat meals, the company serves both retail and foodservice customers. Its portfolio spans pre-packaged sandwiches, salads, wraps, sushi, soups, chilled desserts and bakery items, catering to major supermarket chains, convenience store networks and forecourt operators throughout the United Kingdom and Ireland.
Operating from multiple manufacturing facilities, Greencore combines high-volume automated production lines with dedicated innovation centres to deliver both branded and private-label products. In addition to core convenience foods, the company provides contract packing services, meal kits and seasonal specialties. Through strategic partnerships with retailers and fuel forecourt groups, it has established a broad distribution network that supports rapid product launch cycles and flexible supply chain solutions.
Established in 1991 following the privatisation of the state-owned Irish Sugar Company, Greencore has steadily expanded through targeted acquisitions of UK-based sandwich and snack producers. The group refined its focus on European convenience food in 2015 by divesting its US operations, enabling greater investment in local manufacturing capacity and R&D. Today, Greencore’s growth strategy emphasises product innovation, sustainability and operational efficiency across its UK and Irish sites.
The leadership team comprises a Chief Executive Officer supported by experienced executives in operations, commercial development and sustainability. Recent initiatives have centred on reducing food waste, improving packaging recyclability and enhancing traceability within its supply chain. With ongoing investment in automated technologies and ingredient sourcing, Greencore aims to maintain its market-leading position in the convenience sector while adapting to evolving consumer preferences and retailer requirements.
