FOOD processing giant Moy Park has secured a company-first deal with Iceland to supply 12 of its branded products to 27 of the frozen food retailer's stores in the Republic.

The new lines - including Moy Park’s signature garlic & herb kievs, southern fried mini fillets and Cajun chicken sizzlers, as well as ready to eat roast chicken breast fillets - are available across Iceland Ireland stores from today.

Emma Murphy from Iceland Ireland said: “We’re committed to supporting local suppliers across the island of Ireland and this partnership with Moy Park is part of this long-term business focus and strategy.

“We are currently working with 70 local suppliers and farmers across our 27 stores in the Republic. Iceland is the home of frozen, but we also provide customers with a wide variety of fresh locally sourced produce.

“Customers continue to be surprised when they discover the ever-expanding range of Irish products available in store and we're delighted shopped can now enjoy Moy Park products too.”

“This is fantastic news for the business and the Moy Park brand,” according to Estelle Robinson, commercial manager at Moy Park.

“To secure a supply contract with Iceland Ireland for the first time is an important milestone. Providing families across Ireland with a variety of high quality, tasty options for mealtimes is so important to us.”

She added: “These new listings with Iceland will give more people the chance to try our range of branded lines, possibly for the first time, and we’re confident they will become weekly shopping staples.”
