People and community

Our people, and our community

Giving back is part of who we are. As a family business with strong roots in Birmingham, we support the charities and community groups that feed and look after the people who need it most.

Our support takes many forms: food and ingredients, help at charitable events, and backing for community projects. It is about using what we have as a business to make a real difference.

Christmas with Let's Feed Brum

Let's Feed Brum

We work closely with Let's Feed Brum, supporting projects that reach some of the most vulnerable people in the city: people experiencing homelessness, refugees, and women and families who have experienced domestic violence and spent time in shelters.

Wow, Pak Mecca. Thank you so so very much for all your kindness, support and generosity. The meal you provided us today to support the women and children survivors of domestic abuse and violence was perfect. Everyone enjoyed it and are grateful for all your support. Thanks again for everything. Much love.

The Christmas meal was for women and children who survived domestic abuse. To keep them safe, we only show photographs in which none of our guests can be recognised.

On behalf of Katherine, myself and our charities Let's Feed Brum and the Refugee Run Club, I just wanted to thank you and everyone at Pak Mecca for all your incredible support. We had a wonderful day supporting those in need and giving them a day to remember. Thank you for all your kindness.

International Women's Day

A meal for 60 women

One project is particularly close to our hearts. We provided a meal for an International Women's Day celebration for 60 women who had experienced domestic violence: a day for them to come together, celebrate and enjoy.

Thank you, Pak Mecca, so so much for your kindness today. Everything went very well, we had 60 women victims of domestic violence celebrating World Women's Day. It was very nice to be able to provide a little bit of joy to this vulnerable group. Thank you for all your kind support. Much love.

Our people

We work as one team

At Pak Mecca Meats we work as one team, and we take pride in being a place where people can learn, develop and grow.

Our workforce brings together people from different backgrounds, cultures and experiences, and that makes the team stronger. We want an inclusive workplace, where everyone is treated with respect and has the support they need to do well.

  • Teamwork
  • Inclusion
  • Respect
  • Development
  • Pride
  1. Learning that suits you

    People learn and communicate in different ways. We give clear guidance, the right training and accessible learning materials, so everyone understands their role and can do it with confidence.

  2. Skills that grow

    We encourage our people to build new skills and gain experience, and to share what they know with the rest of the team.

  3. Room to progress

    As the business grows, we want our people to grow with it, with the chance to progress.

As Pak Mecca Meats grows, we want our contribution to grow with it. For us, giving back is not about recognition. It is about looking after the community around us, and helping where it matters.
