A Mid West Christmas Poem

As you may have just possibly noticed, we love a bit of poetry here at Mid West..! As such, we've written you a special Christmas poem - enjoy!

The Mid West office is closed,
Combi Santa has donned his fine hat,
The slicers are calm and composed,
And hoping the journey is flat!

The sleigh is ready to go
And the spectacle takes to the skies -
Anyone down below
Will never believe their eyes!

You thought that we just sold equipment,
But no, you’ve got it all wrong,
For our job is to help Santa’s shipment
Get to the chefs where it belongs!

We’ll be back open in the New Year
But remember that we will deny
Those sleigh bells you think that you hear
And the slicers you saw in the sky…

Merry Christmas from all at Mid West!

We're now closed for the hols and reopen on 2nd January 2014 - see you then!

Movember - John the Slicer

We are delighted to introduce John the Slicer - the newest member of our Mid West Movember team. He joins Charlie the Chargrill and Harry the Bratt Pan, who have already taken on the challenge.

John the Slicer enjoys slicing fine French cheese and deli products, so naturally he chose to go for a French-style moustache. A rather suave and debonair chap, John the Slicer is also highly experienced in slicing a variety of meats and breads. He takes great pride in his work and likes to boast about his fancy manual and automatic settings, as well as showing off the speed in which he can slice foods into precise portions. 

All this snooty behaviour has made him quite unpopular amongst the other equipment items, who find him to be rather obsessed with efficiency and accuracy and not so keen on making casual conversation. 

John the Slicer is hoping that by participating in Movember, he can show the other equipment that he's just "one of the guys" and no more outstanding than any of the other items. He's still convinced that his moustache is the best though.

If you'd like to support John the Slicer and our staff team on their Movember mission, visit their team webpage here to make a donation.
