Isle of Man Meats working with UK supplier

Partnership aims to give Manx farmers increased access to UK market

Isle of Man Meats hopes working with a UK supplier will give Manx farmers greater access to the British market.

Suffolk-based Northgate Foods is partnering with the local board in a bid to increase sales and profit for producers on the Island.

Northgate will buy Manx-produced pork, beef and lamb to sell on to the catering and manufacturing sectors.

Chair of Isle of Man Meats Tim Baker MHK says a change of approach to the UK market has been a long time coming.
