Our take

Simmer was founded in 2017 when Simmy was fed up of seeing fellow students at university always having to live off bad-quality and expensive ready meals and takeaways. He noticed that there was a gap in the market for convenient, high-quality and delicious food, at a price even students could afford.

After achieving popularity with students, Simmy got his brother Jhai and their mother on board, growing the business with a family-first mindset. Its meals are hand made by a passionate team who are determined to extend the benefits of a healthy diet - on energy levels, mental health, and confidence - to everyone.

Simmer's meals are all highly convenient and quick to prepare, reducing the stress associated with food preparation and freeing up busy people's time. It also combines a healthy nutritional balance (with a particular focus on protein, and varying portion sizes to meet the needs of its clientele) with delicious flavours.

Since its founding, Simmer serves hundreds of people weekly, including reality TV stars and Premier League football winners. Alongside this, it frequently donates food to local homeless charities, furthering its mission of giving people access to a healthy, happy life.
