Established in 2014 by Douglas Stewart, a lobster fisherman’s son from the Isle of North Uist, Hebridean Food Company uses fresh, natural ingredients from Scotland’s larder to handmake healthy and hearty meals that are ready to eat in minutes.

“Asda is the first supermarket to list the full Stewart’s Kitchen range of ready meals and soups,” explained Douglas Stewart, Managing Director of Hebridean Food Company. 

Douglas continued:

“We pour our passion for food into everything we produce, creating genuinely good and flavoursome products which are free from artificial additives and preservatives. Our products are proudly inspired by the Hebridean Island approach to life, we take the time to do things right and source high quality, local ingredients. This partnership with Asda will also help to create five new roles within the business.

“We know our customers love local suppliers, and we’re delighted to begin this partnership with Hebridean Food Company, welcoming ten excellent traditional meals and soups with a contemporary twist into our stores.
