A GWYNEDD butchery has scooped a top national award for the quality of its own-brand meat.
Harlech Foodservice’s Bwydlyn butchery has been named National Foodservice Processor of the Year at the Meat & Poultry Processing Awards 2016.
Bwydlyn-branded meat has proved a huge success for Harlech Foodservice since it was launched in 2012.
It started when the wholesaler bought a butchery business close to its Criccieth head depot and is now worth around £4m a year to the business.
