The campaign will run throughout September and October at the company’s restaurants across the healthcare, government and business & industry sectors, with a unique look and feel for each ISS’s restaurant brands: The Place, The Whole Grain and Ignite.
As part of the campaign, Kenny has designed a special menu for ISS, featuring dishes filled with classic autumnal flavours and ingredients. The menu is comprised of five main dishes, two stacked sandwiches and a dessert, and includes a Creamy Butterbean, Squash & Sage Penne, Cheddar Rarebit, Onion & Potato Galette, Roast Porchetta with Cider Gravy, and Bonfire Toffee Apple Crumble.
Kenny’s dishes bring together high street restaurant trends and sustainability and waste reduction, with a focus on balancing hearty comfort food with nutrient-dense meals designed to prevent the afternoon slump. The dishes are adaptations of some of his signature restaurant items, engineered to fit high-volume kitchens.
By merging Kenny’s approachable British comfort food style with ISS’s infrastructure, the partnership targets hybrid workers who expect high-street quality when dining at their workplace.
The partnership is the first in a series of activations with popular chefs coming to ISS’s restaurants, with a collaboration with Indian chef and food writer Maunika Gowardhan launching soon.
Simon Price, Chef Director at ISS UK & Ireland, said: “It has been fantastic to work with Kenny on this campaign. The collaboration centres on elevating everyday workplace dining away from generic, mass-canteen offerings and towards vibrant, chef-led experiences. By blending Kenny’s culinary creativity with ISS’s massive operational scale, the partnership sets a high benchmark for modern contract catering.”
Hannah Hughes, Marketing & Retail Concept Director at ISS UK & Ireland, said: “We’re so excited to be offering Kenny’s trend-led, autumnal dishes to our customers. As the weather begins to change, people seek hearty dishes filled with autumnal flavours, and Kenny’s dishes really meet this brief. We are always looking for innovative ways to give our customers something new, and it has been fantastic to work with Kenny on this exclusive new menu, designed to elevate our offer.”
Kenny Tutt said: “Building this menu for ISS has been great fun. I’ve really enjoyed developing these dishes, which are cosy, homely and properly fill you up, which is important as the weather gets a bit colder. I’ve had a wonderful experience working with ISS. Everybody has been really welcoming – the chefs are so passionate and great fun. I always find that when a kitchen has good heart and a good energy, that generally translates onto the plate. It’s been a real pleasure!”
