Twice recognised in Scottish awards
BUCKIE based Associated Seafoods Ltd (ASL) has been named as a finalist at the North East Scotland Food and Drink Awards 2018 thanks to the strong market performance of one of its smoked salmon products.
M&S Twice Smoked Scottish Salmon has been shortlisted in the ‘Most Successful Product from the 2017 Awards’ category because of its popularity with consumers.
Neil Greig, ASL commercial director, said: ‘We are delighted to have made the final at the North East Scotland Food and Drink Awards, which is recognition of the fantastic work by all the team at Associated Seafoods in producing the best quality Scottish smoked salmon.’
M&S Twice Smoked Scottish Salmon is produced using an innovative smoking technique where the salmon is carefully dry cured in salt and then twice smoked for perfect flavour and texture.
Last year, Twice Smoked Scottish Salmon won the coveted M&S Food Group Innovation Award, a tribute to the development work behind the product and its subsequent strong sales performance.
The North East Scotland Food and Drink Awards celebrate the best of food and drink throughout Aberdeen City, Aberdeenshire and Moray. The awards ceremony will be held on Thursday, March 22, at the Ardoe House Hotel, Aberdeen.
