The range features four flavours: Aioli, Tartare, Peri Peri and Burger Sauce. The packaging is designed to reduce prep time, improve portion control and help keep benches cleaner during busy service periods. It is suitable for both back-of-house use and front-of-house finishing.

“Speed, consistency and ease of use are critical in QSR environments,” said Mohamed AbouElkheir, general manager at FoodFx. “The new batch No.5 1L squeezy bottles are designed to keep service moving during peak periods, with reliable portion control and consistent flavour every time. It’s a format that works just as hard as the teams using it.”

“Cafés want products that feel premium but are still practical,” Mohamed AbouElkheir added. “The batch No.5 1L squeezies give chefs and baristas a clean, easy way to finish dishes with confidence, whether it’s a burger, brunch plate or seafood special, without cluttering the bench or slowing service.”

The bottles are designed to complement burgers, seafood, wraps, sandwiches and share plates, supporting a range of menus and service styles. The packaging is also engineered to maximise product usage and shelf life while minimising leftovers.

The batch No.5 1L squeezy bottle range is available through leading foodservice distributors.
