INNOVATION In 2001 the focus change to manufacturing particularly sausages and breakfast puddings for the food service and retail markets. Products are manufactured using a combination of traditional recipes from as far back as the 1970s and newer recipes to suit the needs and taste of the modern day consumer. BRC ACCREDATION Loughnanes of Galway is a product of Ireland, therefore, we always try to supply our ingredients from locally sourced suppliers.
