Beacon Foods, one of the UK’s leading suppliers of ingredients and ready-to-eat products, is busy working with its customers to secure and contract garlic requirements through to September, 2026.
The award-winning, Brecon-based company has 32 years’ experience of Spanish garlic products, processing in excess of 60 tonnes into a diverse range of ready-to-eat formats every week.
Garlic products include sliced, diced, whole cloves, puree, chopped, roasted, smoked roasted, fire-grilled slices, pickled and candied.
The company also makes garlic infused oil, relish, ketchup, aioli and confit. You name the garlic format, it’s almost certain Beacon Foods does it.
“Our expertise, reliability and production capacity makes Beacon Foods the ‘go to’ partner for food manufacturers, chefs and NPD teams across the UK,” said the company’s chairman Edward Gough.
“Importantly, we have long-term relationships with garlic growers and suppliers. With new season garlic contracts being offered, now is the ideal time for existing and potential customers to discuss their needs for the coming year with us.
“One of the reasons customers trust us to supply high quality garlic products is the vast knowledge we have as a business in terms of flavour profile and varieties.”
As part of a £6 million investment programme to double the size of the company’s manufacturing and storage facilities, Beacon Foods has installed a new production line to meet huge demand for garlic products.
Customers include food manufacturers, food service, coffee shops, fast food chains and travel and hospitality industries.
Established in 1993, Beacon Foods is the UK’s leading specialist producer of garlic, ginger and chili puree, roasted and char grilled vegetables and fruit ranges, relishes, chutneys, sauces, confit and fruit compotes.
The ingredients go into thousands of products, including sandwiches, ready meals, pizzas, soups, drinks and desserts, which can be found on supermarket shelves, airlines, restaurant chains and coffee shops.
