the UK; Royal chilled desserts, which can be found at retailers like Tesco, Sainsbury’ s, Asda, Morrisons, and a range of London-based independent stores; and onion puree, a highdemand product with strong profit margins and consistent growth.
As well as being the UK’ s only largescale manufacturer of Indian desserts and chilled onion puree, BHL’ s product range has expanded and diversified across multiple categories. Its longstanding partnership with Pilgrim’ s Food Masters, formerly Kerry Foods, sees BHL supply a range of key ingredients such as dips, yoghurt, paneer, and koftas.
Since the Covid-19 pandemic, BHL has ventured beyond ethnic snacks to produce ready meals inspired by British and international favorites. A diverse range of Halal ready meals was created under its Royal brand with supermarket chains in mind, and the meals can now be found in major retailers Sainsbury’ s, Tesco, and Morrisons. This comes after BHL developed a range of own-label ready meals, which were designed to include superior nutritional standards and high protein content. BHL also provides branded samosas for Waitrose, which are available in plant-based, vegetarian, and lamb varieties, and the company is also in discussions with Waitrose about a collection of ready meals.
Despite its long heritage, these product evolutions highlight how BHL is anything but traditional. Through constant innovation and market research, the company not only strives to bring its products to new audiences but also to create exciting products for existing customers. Leveraging a team of experienced chefs across multiple cuisines,
