En Route is celebrating its 20th anniversary this month, and we couldn’t be prouder of what we’ve achieved in this time.

From a humble start-up in 2002 providing premium bakery solutions to airlines to a global food service partner to many of the world’s most recognised airlines and airline catering organisations, our growth is down to our incredible team and our partners who continue to trust us to deliver world-class food solutions and solve their complex operational issues.

We thought the occasion would be a great excuse to look back over some of our biggest achievements, milestones and most prized memories. From new partnerships, new faces and new opportunities, there’s been a lot to smile about over the years…
