Mitie has won a three-year security contract with the Bank of England, following a competitive tender process.
CH&CO AND COMPANY
OF COOKS MERGE Bespoke caterer, Company of Cooks, is to join forces with independent caterer and Royal Warrant holder, CH&CO.
Company of Cooks, which has business in London and the South East of England and a turnover of £35m and 600 employees, operates in the visitor attraction and cultural sectors, including at RHS Garden Wisley, the Royal Opera House and the National Portrait Gallery.
The merger will enable Company of Cooks to gain the extra support that a larger organisation like CH&CO supplies in particular in back office
functions but also in learning and development opportunities for team members.
Mike Lucy, Founder of Company of Cooks, will continue to manage the business and the Company of Cooks brand. He will also lead on sharing best practice across the combined portfolio.
Lucy said: “This merger provides a great opportunity for the loyal and talented members of the Company of Cooks band. It also provides us with a greater ability to compete and, with the benefit of CH&CO and the Company of Cooks credentials and distinct personality, I’m confident that we can make a positive impact both in our own specialist market and to the wider CH&CO group.”

The FM specialists will provide manned guarding services for the Bank of England’s high-profile site at Threadneedle Street in the City of London, as well as its site in Debden, Essex.
Drawing on its extensive security expertise, Mitie’s team will support the UK’s central bank 24 hours, 365 days a year.
The Bank of England was founded in 1694 as private bank to the UK government and later moved to its iconic Threadneedle Street location in London in 1734. Today it is known as the UK’s central bank due to the London site location.
The contract comes with the option to extend for a further two years.
