Midland Foods Supported Aston University in their “Go Green Week”

Midland Foods Supported Aston University in their “Go Green Week” on Tuesday 7^th February, the university celebrates their commitment to sustainability on an annual basis where activities are held to promote awareness and launch going greener projects.

The Girls were promoting local produce and distributing information leaflets, Quality Standards recipes and providing the public with a tasting sample of our delicious sausage range. As expected the sausages went down a storm, with not a sausage left!

As new meat suppliers to both Aston University and Conference Aston, we are able to assist in their commitment to sustainability by reduction in food miles and local sourcing.
