Sally Clarke Bakery

The Challenge - why they choose CLEAN

As a food producer Sally Clarke Bakery must adhere to the strict BRCGS Global Food Safety Standard and have stringent Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) plan in place. This is important for any food business as it allows them to identify and manage any biological, chemical or physical hazards that could make the food produced unsafe to eat. Any workwear service failure in supply from their laundry services supplier could result in non-conformance with the regulations. Unfortunately their pervious supplier was letting them down frequently, many of the garments collected for cleaning weren’t being returned with the next delivery and were frequently going missing completely. Also the bakers uniforms that were supplied were not comfortable to wear. Baking bread is a hot business as a result the bakers can be working in extreme temperatures that require the right workwear clothing.

The Solution - Flour Power!

The move to CLEAN as their preferred workwear supplier was largely due to our consultative approach to solving workwear challenges in the workplace. Our dedicated account manager was able to offer a much more flexible and reliable solution to the bakery’s changing workwear requirement than their incumbent supplier.

Due to the extreme temperatures that the bakers at Sally Clarke Bakery work in they needed a smart looking that is both comfortable and robust. The team at CLEAN assessed the working environment and any workplace hazards before suggesting easy fitting chef trousers with an elasticated waist and a specially made bespoke bakers tops with a CoolMax meshed-back for all day comfort.

CLEAN were easily able to solve the frustrating and costly missing garment issues experienced with the previous supplier. Uniforms are tracked throughout the laundry process, using RFID technology and a unique 4 point scan barcode system, to ensure they are returned clean and ready to wear. Sally Clarke Bakery were assured to know HACCP procedures were in place, along with adherence to BRC Global Standards and quality management system that is certified to ISO9001 standard. Using our high care barrier plant facility all food trade workwear is hygienically cleaned and thermally disinfected, before being neatly packed to each customers’ requirements ensuring safe and clean workwear clothing is available at all times.
