Business as Usual While We Deliver Your Project
We understand the unique challenges faced by small and medium sized food manufacturers and that there is a fine margin between success and failure.
A common challenge experienced by growing SME food manufacturers is that their resources are thinly spread, with owners and directors often wearing multiple hats and taking a hands-on role in the business. This, coupled with a lack of expertise or experience in designing and building food factories, means that you may be left wondering where to start.
With a partner like Oakley, your only time commitment is in key decisions with a weekly meeting with your dedicated contracts manager, freeing up your time and headspace to focus on your business.
We know it’s a significant financial commitment that you are about to undertake. Can you afford to get it wrong?
