Welsh Food & Drink Manufacturer of the Year!

Amidst stiff competition in what is a thriving Welsh Food and Drink industry, we were delighted to be crowned Food and Drink Manufacturer of the Year at the Insider Media ‘Made in Wales’ Awards 2018!

Thursday 4th October 2018 saw the annual Insider Media ‘Made in Wales’ Awards take place in City Hall, Cardiff. Hosted by Jason Mohammed, the awards are a celebration of some of the very best businesses within the Welsh manufacturing sector. Awards range from Digital Engineering/Technology, through to Manufacturing Apprentice/Training Scheme and Sustainable/Ethical Manufacturer of the year. Alongside Puffin Produce, award-winners this year included a roof-rack maker and an organic pesticides specialist.

Competition was tough within the Food and Drink category, with Puffin Produce shortlisted against Radnor Hills, EJ Catering and Monty’s Brewery…

Radnor Hills: Based in Radnorshire in Mid Wales, Radnor Hills supply; spring and flavoured waters, functional waters, school compliant drinks, premium sparkling pressés, fruit juices and own label brands.

We were thrilled to be able to pick up the award, with the judges particularly impressed with our vast increase in capacity and packing capabilities over the last 18 months, our recent capital investment and our ongoing plans for expansion of our business. The coming few years look to be exciting, and we look forward to continuing to growing both our produce and our business for Wales!
