Meet the Team
Meet the Team
Over the years, we’ve gained some amazing employees and friends, some of whom have been with us from near enough the beginning!
Meet a few of them here...
Hugh Walker
Hugh Walker
Chairman
After a decade designing catering operations and developing dozens of cafes around England and Wales, Hugh founded Eden Caterers in 1993, pledging to grow a new business in one place with one team. The Eden we have now is the fulfilment of that decision and dream. “I’m immensely proud of Eden and the team that now forges it forward to a bright future. This success has been founded on simple values and a culture of working hard with kindness, honesty and integrity in all that we say and do”.
Being kind to our planet is at Hugh’s core. He campaigns to reduce the use of single use plastic, has cleaned dozens of beaches around our coastline, is a beekeeper and chooses the bicycle before any other form of transport.
Nick Mead
Nick Mead
Managing Director
Nick joined Eden only two years after the company was founded back in 1993 and has virtually fulfilled every role. He is instrumental in preserving Eden's award-winning food and service, as well as delivering innovative development for the company's strong sustainability ethos.
FUN FACT: When he's not buzzing around Eden, Nick could well be found riding his road bike through the Surrey Hills or, more likely, as a scuba Divemaster in a sea, lake, or even a swimming pool teaching others how to dive.
Jeremy Redgewell
Jeremy Redgewell
Director of Operations
Jeremy has been a central member of the Eden Team for the last 19 years. His main job is overseeing all the day to day operational aspects of the company’s business and ensuring we maintain industry leading standards in all that we do for our clients. No easy task when juggling dozens of orders to be made and delivered into central London daily; but Jeremy does it while keeping the teams both organised and amused with humorous banter.
When not at Eden you’ll find him, near scratch and generally winning, on the Golf Course.

Fahd has been with Eden for nearly 20 years (one of the longest serving members of the team!). His poker face would lead you to believe he’s the serious stern-faced boss, but dig a little deeper and you might just get a rare glimpse of that lovely smile (he’ll hate us for saying that).
