Milne Foods Ltd is a family owned and managed business, and operate one of Ireland's largest vegetable processing plants, based in Birr in Co Offaly.
Milne Foods Ltd was founded and commenced trading in 1992 when Pat Milne who have been trading Fresh Fruit & Vegetables from parent company M Milne & Sons Ltd for three decades previously. Milne Foods began with a staff of five people preparing, packaging and delivering finished product to just a few customers.
From the beginning all machinery purchased was done so to cater for more than double existing capacity, this ensured that whatever capacity was required at that time could be catered for. From 2007-2011 the company upgraded its Plant and Equipment with the purchase of new High-Tec potato sorting, weighing and packaging machinery. Milne Foods has one of the most advanced potato peeling lines in Europe.
