Dolce joins the IFG family

Dolce is a respected, family-founded and award-winning catering company known for fresh, high-quality food, excellent service and a strong people-first culture, supported by innovative digital systems.

Bringing our two organisations together marks an exciting moment. Both IFG and Dolce share the same belief: that great food can make a real difference to students’ lives. By combining our expertise, resources and technology, we can deliver even greater value to schools, students, parents and communities across the UK.

Together, we will continue working towards IFG’s mission to transform one million students’ lives every year through the power of food – supporting healthier choices, better wellbeing and stronger school communities.

A Message from Our Leadership

Richard Taylor, CEO of Impact Food Group, said:

“Dolce’s dedication to fresh food, quality service and strong values mirrors our own. We’re thrilled to welcome the team to the IFG family and to work alongside a partner that shares our passion for improving student wellbeing through great food.

Together, we’ll combine our strengths to deliver exceptional service for our schools while protecting the unique cultures that make both our organisations special. Most importantly, this partnership allows us to reach more students and help them enjoy better food every day.”

Scott Curtis, Co-Founder of Dolce, added:

“We’re incredibly proud of what we’ve built at Dolce and excited about what comes next. With IFG’s support, we have even more opportunities to grow, innovate and continue delivering the outstanding food and service our schools expect.

This partnership is about working together, learning from one another and continuing to make a positive difference for our clients, customers and teams.”

Looking Ahead

As we begin this new chapter, our focus is on ensuring a smooth transition for our teams, clients and customers. Over the coming months we’ll be working closely together, sharing expertise and strengthening the impact we can make through food.

We look forward to what’s ahead and to continuing to support schools and communities with the same care and commitment that define both Dolce and IFG.
