Our company mission statement is “Adding Value to Food”, so for 2014 we plan to make one of our missions “Adding Value to Haggis”.
We have the commitment of our Technical Resource Centre to develop an exciting, extended range of haggis mixes.
The end result should allow the butchers across Scotland to present variants of haggis related dishes with extra value and a price point and margin which drive sales and profit into our customer base.
We have a solid haggis mix expertise to build upon – our traditional complete mix features regularly in the winners’ circle of haggis competitions.
