What’s the weather going to be?
July 31st, 2017With our food development and production plant located on the banks of the Menai Strait and the Snowdonia National Park just behind us, we are often asked “what’s the weather going to be this weekend?” by clients and suppliers who are planning a weekend or holiday to North Wales.
The answer a local Snowdonia farmer would give is “if you can’t see the mountains it’s raining, if you can see the mountains it’s due to rain.”
A leading UK supermarket is now putting weekend weather forecasts in its stores to assist customers with planning barbecues or parties. And announcements will be made over the PA system.

Why cook sous vide?
July 26th, 2017Free-from has been transformed from the neglected corner of the product development to a hub of investment and innovation.
Initially a niche category reserved for those with medical conditions, it is now bought by 78% of shoppers. Manufacturers and retailers are now embracing this category with passion. Any category with 38.5% value growth delivering £800m sales is set to grow even more if gluten-free products come off prescription.
As a specialist in new product development across the restaurant, pub, leisure, foodservice, manufacturing, retail, public sector and hospitality sectors one of our top customer discussions is about gluten-free options. Innovation now allows free-from shoppers and diners similar levels of choice as those without dietary requirements.
