Initially, Ballymaguire Foods produced a small selection of mash and raw potato products under its own brand. However, the business has become a major producer of own-label products for retailers, with the UK now a significant export market.
Ballymaguire Foods now has the capacity to produce in excess of 500,000 ready meals per week. The company sources almost 700t of beef, 2,080t of vegetables, 780t of dairy produce and 600t of chicken for its product range every year.
