Scotty Brand has secured a UK wide listing with ASDA to supply strawberries.
The Scottish food producer is doubling the amount of strawberries and raspberries grown this year, after securing the UK contract, meaning that its delicious berries will be available to buy throughout the UK with the supermarket chain.
Michael Jarvis, head of marketing at Scotty Brand, said: “Strawberries are always an exciting addition to our portfolio during the summer months and this year we are delighted that Scotty Brand strawberries will be available throughout the UK. Scottish berries are popular both north and south of the border, and for the first-time customers across the UK will get the chance to try and enjoy our strawberries.”
