Storage Expansion
Our potato crops will have more room to rest with the addition of a shiny new 3,000 tonne capacity cold store facility. All ready to go for the new season potatoes.
Round Table Fundraiser
An entertaining weekend of fundraising organised by the Market Rasen & District Round Table saw the Beer Festival raising £5,000 for charity. We will be looking forward to sponsoring you again next year!
Community Spirit
Every year we look forward to sponsoring the Scawby Agricultural and Horticultural Society’s annual show. Showcasing the local growing successes and bringing the community together for a fun day, keeps this spirited tradition alive since the society’s founding year, 1938.
Bulk packing for our Food Processing Customers
Being able to pack into reusable plactic bins speeds up production time and is an efficient use of transport. This video was created in preparation for the Potato Event in Harrogate this month.

Installation has been completed on a 220kWp Solar Panel system. Just in time for the early sunshine of Spring! This type of renewal resource energy generation ideally matches our processes, as our peak demand coincides with the peak output of the sun.
Our roofs are now covered in panels to soak up those rays, significantly reducing our carbon footprint!
