Central Foods, a leading frozen food distributor, has unveiled a new vegan and gluten-free sausage, expanding its free-from range tailored for the food service sector.
Introducing the KaterVeg! vegan and gluten-free VG sausage—crafted from the same popular recipe as the KaterVeg! vegan meatballs. This item ranks among Central Foods’ best-selling products.
Composed primarily of soya, the KaterVeg! VG sausage serves as a protein source, boasting high fibre content and low sugar levels. It is expertly designed to accommodate both vegan and gluten-free diners.
Gordon Lauder, managing director of Central Foods, remarked: “Our KaterVeg! vegan meatballs are a great product and very popular so we decided to use the same recipe to create the VG sausage.”
He added, “It’s moist, juicy and really tasty and is a super addition to our plant-based sausage and burger range. This new product will provide our food service customers with a delicious option that is suitable for both vegans and gluten-free diners.”
Each sausage weighs 50g, and KaterVeg! VG sausages are conveniently supplied frozen in packs of 40.
The KaterVeg! range is Central Foods’ own brand, offering a diverse selection of meat-free and vegetable-based products for the catering sector. While all items are suitable for vegetarians, many are also ideal for vegans, and an increasing number cater to both vegans and coeliacs seeking gluten-free options.
Currently, Central Foods supplies over 180 independent wholesalers, alongside larger national and regional distributors. Based in Northamptonshire, the company is proud to serve as a catering partner throughout the food service sector, providing solutions to hotels, restaurants, bars, universities, schools, pubs, care homes, garden centres, leisure outlets, and more.
