Egg Soldiers co-founder Toph Ford injected foodservice best practices and the entrepreneurial thinking of a young brand into a leading retail focused environment – launching on-trend new concepts and re-thinking existing offers.

"Toph, Stefan and their Egg Soldiers are not only clear experts in their fields, but they have a brilliantly collaborative nature - something I really appreciated during the project.

"We came away with genuine confidence in both the new food strategies and in the ways in which we might implement them. And for both, I have to applaud the Egg Soldiers team."

Jim Hamilton
Head of Commercial Operations

BurgerBoi, a premium fast-food brand with 15 sites across the UK, recognised the need for a menu refresh to drive sales and support its growing brand presence.

Our work with the brand resulted in a 12% increase in sales, bolstered revenue growth, and established a strategic LTO calendar.

Egg Soldiers was commissioned by P&O Cruises for two engaging projects.

The first was to develop the menu and food offer for its new restaurant concept, 6th Street Diner - a classic American diner with a twist.

Following this, Egg Soldiers was tasked with revamping P&O's main food offer, named Freedom Dining, with 800 new dishes developed for its fleet of vessels.

"Egg Soldiers were quick to understand our brief and vision in the new industry of cultivated meat, and helped us with our product development to quickly create a delicious end product.

"The level of quality, care and professionalism was highly appreciated, and we were extremely happy with the end product.

"We would highly recommend the Egg Soldiers team, and would definitely work with them again."

Russ Tucker
Co-Founder

"The Egg Soldiers team has been a game-changer for our business.

"Implementing their recommendations has resulted in improved sales, site performance, and set us on a scalable business journey.

"Their tailored solutions and attention to detail are impressive. Highly recommended!"

Anu Kathuria
Owner

Qima Café called on Egg Soldiers to develop a brunch/lunch menu that would enhance its high-end coffee and pastry offering, while also helping equip and optimize their new CPU to ensure quality and consistency across the growing brand.

"Loungers undertook one of its largest and most ambitious projects ever and called on Stefan and the Egg Soldiers to help.

"The guidance, teaching and implementation was carefully curated and delivered; the results were game changing.

"Loungers simply wouldn't be the business it is today without the huge Back of House transformational project, that Stefan was integral to."

Jake Bishop
Co-Founder

"Egg Soldiers' development process was comprehensive and engaging, with the team's diverse set of skills invaluable assets for us during what was an important project.

"It was a pleasure to work with them, and the feedback from our customers has been really positive since launch – we've seen an uptick in café engagement across demographics and increases across all key performance indicators."
