Think Sauces
Think New Ivory
We think about nothing else…
At New Ivory, we develop and manufacture the freshest and best tasting sauces, gravies, marinades, dips and dressings for pouring over, dipping and drizzling. From classic fish and steak sauces and rich chicken, beef and onion gravies to gorgeous chocolate and toffee dessert sauces, all available in a wide and flexible range of packaging formats, our sauces make the meal complete.
We’re the UK leader in this growing market. We work with major UK retailers and food manufacturers. New Ivory is a business without compromise – the best people, the best processes, the best environment all coming together to produce the best product.
When Harry Met Sally
Some things are just better together...We recognise that a meal is much more than the sum of the parts - it's how these components work together in perfect harmony. When we design sauces, we bear this in mind to create the perfect meal occasion. We don’t cut corners. We use the finest, freshest ingredients. We chase perfection around the kitchen until we’ve got it just so.
Take our Watercress Sauce – beautiful with a roasted salmon fillet. Most turn khaki when cooked. Not ours, which stays a wonderful vibrant green. We blend some of the watercress to release the colour, but keep the rest back until the end so it gets the least cooking it can. This extra care gives a really smooth, pale green peppery sauce that looks as good as it tastes.

You can’t make a silk purse from a sow's ear
...nor a good sauce from bad ingredientsKenny Harder is a New Ivory Team Leader, and a perfect example of our people. Kenny wasn’t happy with the efficiency of our mini bottle filler and unprompted, he improved performance by a staggering 40% through a nifty engineering solution.
You'll find people like Kenny throughout New Ivory. Our philosophy starts with people and teamwork. The knowledge, dedication, experience, devotion – there are so many qualities that bind our team together. Sure, we’re a mixed bunch: male and female, young and old (old-ish, some would rather we said), small, tall and from all corners of the planet, And yet we’re all united by a common purpose – to make the best sauces in the business.
We ooze Zubrance
It's the way we areThere are currently three companies in the Group. As well as New Ivory, down in Dudley our sister company, Quality Kernels, processes nuts, seeds and dried fruit. And over in Harrogate, there’s Food Design, a producer of sweet inclusions used throughout the food industry.
