M&S selected Pork Farms Group for the award in recognition of the company’s outstanding product innovation and consistently high product quality delivered since the Gastropub egg launched in stores last year.
The egg has a perfectly runny centre that maintains its runny yolk even when reheated – an innovation achieved by developing a unique and highly specialised process.
Matt Dawson, M&S product developer, said: “The Gastropub Runny Poached Scotch Egg has allowed us to offer our consumers a reinvention of the Scotch egg. In supplying the product to us, Pork Farms has shown the rare ability to combine truly ground-breaking innovation with the consistent quality that our customers expect. It tastes great and scores a perfect 10 in our consumer taste tests.”
Chris Peters, MD of Pork Farms, said: “At Pork Farms Group, innovation, excellent product quality and strong customer relationships form three of the central pillars of our business. This M&S award gives us particular pride as it reflects great strength in all three areas.”
