CTOs on the Move

Pioneering handmade natural food since 1986. College friends, Sinclair and Julian, opened the first Pret A Manger in London in 1986.

Pioneering handmade natural food since 1986. College friends, Sinclair and Julian, opened the first Pret A Manger in London in 1986. It was a shop with a mission to create handmade natural food, avoiding the obscure chemicals, additives and preservatives common to so much of the `prepared` and `fast` food on the market. The two of them had woefully little experience in the world of business. They created the sort of food they craved but couldn`t find anywhere else. 30 years on, the mission remains unchanged. Pret operates a bit like a restaurant. We build kitchens in (or very near) every shop. You won`t find `sell-by` dates on our fresh sandwiches and salads. Our milk and coffee is organic. We offer our unsold food to charity at the end of each day rather than keeping it to sell the next day.
