Commitment to apprenticeships recognised in industry report!

Harrison Catering, a family-owned and independent catering company, recognises the valuable impact that well-supported and developed people bring to the continued growth and success of the business. This is why we are delighted to be named one of the top 10 family business apprentice employers in the UK.

In a recent report, published by Family Business United and titled ‘UK Family Business Apprentice Employers Report 2025’, Harrison Catering were ranked seventh, alongside some significant and well-known family-owned businesses – a fantastic accolade!

The report highlighted the significant and growing contribution that family businesses make to the apprenticeship landscape, underscoring their commitment to investing in the next generation of talent.

Commenting on the report, Paul Andrews, Founder and CEO of Family Business United, said:

“This is our fourth report, and it clearly highlights the growing importance of apprenticeships to family firms across the UK. These businesses are not only creating jobs but are investing in the skills and careers of future leaders.”

Our award-winning, comprehensive training programs are offered throughout our business. Our online platform, the Harrison Learning Hub (HLH), is endorsed by the Institute of Hospitality (IoH) for many of its learning modules.
