 Plough
to Plate
An expanding Cornish business is reducing food miles while
increasing its annual turnover to £1 million and doubling
the size of its premises.
Plough to Plate, originally based in 2,000 sq ft of rented
units at Doublebois, near Liskeard, sources and supplies quality
Cornish food and drink to Cornish food outlets.
Set up in 2003 with support from Objective One EAGGF (European
Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund) via Business Link’s
Cornwall Food and Drink Programme and Cornwall Taste of the
West, the business, which has six vans and ten employees,
is currently in talks with national potential clients including
a major cash and carry firm and a heritage organisation.
