Smart fridge in Sheffield
from steel to advanced manufacturing

On a former coking and coal site on the Sheffield–Rotherham border, the Advanced Manufacturing Park now hosts around a hundred companies and some 2,000 skilled workers in research and production. Along the Lower Don Valley, steel and engineering firms still work in shifts. The tradition has changed, the problem of a decent meal at the end of a late shift hasn't.

Where people work

An innovation district
in the Don Valley

The Advanced Manufacturing Park grew around university research centres and now forms part of what has been called an advanced manufacturing innovation district, with Sheffield Business Park and the Lower Don Valley. Around a hundred companies work there, from global engineering groups to specialist suppliers, many with production and test facilities that run in shifts. In the Lower Don Valley, steelmaking and forging continue alongside new industrial schemes planned near Meadowhall. Sheffield also has two universities and large teaching hospitals with staff on duty day and night. On the industrial sites, the nearest food is usually a drive away.

Questions from Sheffield
Several firms share our building on the park. Can we share a fridge?

Yes. In a shared reception or break area it serves all tenants, who pay by card or app. You need the landlord's agreement on the location.

Does it work for heavy physical work?

Yes. High-protein meal preps, full meals and plenty of drinks sell best; the software shows what goes on each shift.

Who restocks it?

Your team, your caterer or a local supplier.
