Linwoods, a family-owned and managed business, has been flying the flag for top quality Northern Ireland food on the international stage in recent years and this award marks the second major industry success for the company in the latter half of 2017, having also been recognised as ‘Export Business of the Year’ at the British Chamber Awards in November.
John Woods, MD of Linwoods, commented:
“Recognition for our products at one of the world’s most prestigious food and beverage events is a major endorsement of our reputation for producing outstanding health food products and we’re delighted that the judges have chosen our ‘Sprouted Flaxseed’ product as best in class.
“We’re exceptionally proud of the quality of our products and invest heavily in ensuring that we continue to innovate and develop new ranges to meet the demands of our customer base around the globe. To have been recognised at two major industry events is an outstanding achievement and is a real boost for the business as we look forward into 2018.
“Award wins such as this serve to underline the hard work of everyone right across the business and helps to enhance the international confidence in Linwoods’ product range, supported by our strategy of continuing to break into new markets.”
