About Us

Valeo Snackfoods is the combination of Kettle Foods, Tangerine, Big Bear and Its All Good and is one of the UK’s top 100 grocery brands. It is headquartered in Norwich and Pontefract and employs around 2,000 people. Over the past few years, we have strengthened our portfolio to include the Metcalfe’s popcorn brand, Cornpoppers Popcorn factory in Wednesbury and Yellow Chips in Emmeloord, Netherlands. The business in the UK and Europe generates revenues of over £280 million.

Our brands include KETTLE® Chips, Metcalfe’s® popcorn, Foxes, Poppets, Barratt (Wham!, Fruit Salads, Black Jacks, Refreshers, Sherbet fountain, Dip Dab)

Valeo Snackfoods prides itself on its passion for real, natural food and has a strong ethical approach to all its business activities. Having recently been acquired by Valeo Foods (Ireland), our promising future is also reinforced by a strong people and values led culture. Our vision right now is to grow the business by 50% in the next three to five years; both organically and through targeted acquisitions.
