Quality isn’t a checkpoint for us, it’s a continuous process.✨🧀

At Prima Cheese, every batch undergoes multiple levels of quality checks, from the moment it arrives to the final stage of delivery. One question we often get asked is: What happens right after production?

This is where our Test Kitchen plays a critical role.🧡
Our Quality Control team doesn’t just inspect, they cook, test, and document each cheese to ensure it performs exactly as it should. From texture and melt to taste and consistency, every detail is evaluated before it reaches you.

Because exceptional cheese comes from rigorous care at every stage.🌟

When the world cup whistle blows, our factory pauses!⚽️🧀 We’ve got the world cup fever at Prima!!

Throughout the World Cup, we made the decision to pause production so our teams could come together and watch England in action.🏆
And as diversity is one of Prima’s greatest strengths, colleagues supporting other nations across the game were also given the opportunity to cheer on their teams.

At Prima Cheese, we believe great workplaces are built by valuing the people behind the products. It’s a small gesture that reflects a much bigger commitment to our people, our culture and creating moments that bring teams together.🧡
Another team goal scored by Prima!🌟

At Prima Cheese, every day starts with the same commitment: maintaining the highest standards of hygiene, sanitation, and food safety across our entire site.✨
 
What makes our operation unique is that our production facility and office spaces work side by side. That means hygiene isn’t limited to the production areas, it’s a standard that extends throughout our workplace. Whether it’s sanitising equipment, following strict food safety procedures, maintaining spotless workspaces, or ensuring every team member follows best practices, hygiene is a responsibility shared by everyone.🤝🌟
 
In our production areas, this commitment goes even further. Equipment is regularly cleaned and scraped down every 8 hours as part of our strict hygiene procedures, helping to maintain product integrity, prevent contamination, and ensure we consistently deliver the highest quality standards.
Producing high-quality cheese requires attention to detail, consistency, and care.
Because great cheese starts with great standards.🧀
