Food and Drink Manufacturing

Energy Costs Eating into Your Margins?

The UK’s food and drink manufacturing sector is the largest in the country, contributing £104.4 billion to the economy. But with volatile energy prices and high-consumption processes, many manufacturers are losing thousands each year through inefficiencies. In 2023, 70% of food and drink manufacturers saw energy costs rise by up to 20%, putting pressure on profitability.

The Challenge

APS Group, the UK’s leading supplier of tomatoes, produces over 20,000 tonnes annually for the UK’s major supermarkets. Growing, packing, and storing tomatoes requires constant energy, making efficiency critical. APS Group needed to cut costs, eliminate waste, and improve control over its energy use.

How We Helped

Secured better energy tariffs, saving money upfront.
Installed smart energy loggers on packing lines and chillers to track usage.
Provided same-day data so APS Group could adjust chiller settings based on actual need - not guesswork.

The client says

“To reduce our energy use and carbon output in our pack house, we work closely with Alex, Erin, and Jamie from Tritility. Over the past couple of years, new opportunities have opened for us to look at exactly where we were using our energy. We put specific meters on each line and found we were overusing chillers.”
