Nourish - The beginning

What's all this about you may be thinking, well after running S1 Supplements in Sheffield for the past 18 months we have decided that simply advising and helping people with their supplement needs is not enough for us. We're tired of seeing people make the wrong food choices and we're tired of seeing the unhealthy fast food chains just getting bigger with complete disregard for the nation's health, so we're opening a healthy fast food company and we're starting it in Sheffield. 

We're opening this to make a difference to people's lives because for too long people have just been happy to accept that fast food is unhealthy, it doesn't have to be. We are going to make fast food that tastes great, fills you up, doesn't cost the earth (in more sense than one) and it's going to be healthy too.

Nourish is bringing a new type of fast food experience to the market. One that delivers great tasting food with education and consumer engagement of what eating healthy really is.

As a starter here's what we came up with when defining our mission, values and aims
