UK bakery exports to Russia
Stag Bakeries, one of the most remote bakeries in the UK, located on the Isle of Lewis in the Scottish Outer Hebrides, is set to export its products to Russia.
The bakery will send their Stornoway Water Biscuits and seaweed biscuits range to Russia to be stocked by a range of Russian food stores, including Tsum, a renowned department store in Moscow.
“It is fantastic to see that Stag has international appeal. For the first time this year, we took part in an international trade show in Germany and as a result have had phenomenal interest in the Stag brand from all over the world. We are particularly pleased that an emerging market like Russia has expressed interest and Stag is now on sale in some of the best stores. There is huge potential for Stag in international markets,” explains Charlie Macdonald, owner at Stag Bakeries. “We are concentrating on growing our export sales and hoping to penetrate a number of markets this year. We are very much looking forward to the future.”
