From its family-farming roots in Herefordshire to becoming one of Europe's largest independent soft-fruit growers, S&A Produce has built its success on innovation, investment and a dedicated workforce.

 

Operating across the UK and internationally, S&A supplies major retailers with fresh strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries and asparagus. With more than 1,000 seasonal workers supporting its operations, providing suitable on-site facilities is an important part of keeping its farms running efficiently throughout the growing season.

 

At its Herefordshire site, ELA Container provided flexible modular accommodation to support the business's operational requirements, creating practical spaces for staff and helping provide the facilities needed to support a thriving agricultural operation.

S&A Fruit Accommodation units feature colourful doors
The accommodation units feature colourful, custom-designed vinyl door covering, adding a vibrant and welcoming touch.
Cozy outdoor table setup creates a sense of community on site.
Wooden picnic tables with attached benches provide a welcoming outdoor space for residents to relax and socialise.

The scale of S&A Produce's operations makes suitable seasonal worker accommodation essential. To support its Hereford site, ELA Container supplied 66 accommodation units, providing comfortable on-site sleeping quarters for fruit pickers. The facilities offer practical accommodation close to the workplace, helping S&A provide for its seasonal workforce during the busy growing and harvesting seasons.

The colourful accommodation units make a real statement on site, while providing practical, comfortable facilities for S&A's seasonal workforce. It's a great example of how ELA's modular solutions can make a difference to agricultural operations.
