Nortech Foods Launches ‘A Plaice in The Sun’ Holiday Giveaway for Chip Shop Owners

This summer, Nortech Foods Ltd is showing support for fish and chip shops across the UK by giving three lucky businesses the chance to win a holiday as part of a giveaway aptly titled “A Plaice in the Sun”.

Nortech is hiding three separate tickets – bronze, silver, and gold – in boxes of Superior Frying Fat, their popular refined and deodorised beef dripping product.

Each ticket is tied to a special holiday prize. The finder of the golden ticket will win a £2000 TUI holiday voucher, the silver a £1000 Tui voucher, and the bronze ticket a weekend break for two.

Nortech has launched the giveaway to reward fish and chip shops, following the many challenges facing the industry over the last few years.

The coronavirus pandemic combined with inflation and supply chain issues have forced business owners to find new ways of working, with many taking significant financial hits as a result.

Having recognised the hardships that food retailers have faced - Nortech wanted to give back and show their support through a fun giveaway that recognises and celebrates the unwavering efforts of everyone working within the industry.

Commenting on the initiative, Leanne Green, Sales and Commerical Manager at Nortech Foods said:

“We’ve seen first-hand just how difficult the challenges of the last few years have made things for the frying industry.”

“Despite this, we’ve been amazed by the commitment that our customers have shown in the face of adversity and their dedication to doing the best they can. From business owners through to the serving staff working at the frontline of the fish and chip industry - our Plaice in the Sun giveaway is our way of giving back and saying a huge thank you to the people who make what we do possible.”

A Plaice in the Sun will run from 13th June - 31th August, and is open to owners of fish and chip shops nationwide. Superior customers should check inside the box to see whether they have been successful. Each ticket will contain information about the prize, including details on how to claim it.

Frymax is Committed to and Supports Sustainability.

SUSTAINABILITY

For several years Frymax has been made only from fully segregated certified sustainable palm fruit oil. This means that both palm oil and palm kernel oil are produced by palm oil plantations which have been independently audited and certified. The certification is provided by the official body, RSPO which has developed a set of environmental and social criteria member companies must comply with. Fundamental to this, is that no primary forests which contain significant concentrations of biodiversity, fragile ecosystems, or areas which are vital in meeting basic or cultural needs, can be cleared. This seeks to eradicate the threat of unsustainable palm oil plantations which damage both the regional and global environment and that of indigenous wildlife. Both Olenex and ADM, manufacturers of Frymax, support the global sustainability movement and RSPO. They also have an additional supply chain policy which requires Frymax palm oil producers to respect the core sustainability principles of, no deforestation of high carbon stock forests, no development on peatland and no exploitation of communities.

PROJECT MARIPOSA

Frymax sources some of its palm oil from Latin American countries and has undertaken to support producers by providing them with the tools and expertise to produce fully sustainable palm oil. The vehicle to do this is through a new initiative called Mariposa. Mariposa is about enabling growers to manage their palm trees sustainably. In the past three years Olenex has undertaken three very successful Smallholder programmes to support sustainability. Frymax carries the Mariposa logo on its packaging and it is hoped and expected that Mariposa will get increased exposure over time. Says Andrew Marriott, Brand and Marketing Manager of Frymax “We are determined to promote sustainability in any way we can and support those who produce the oils for our product. Our involvement in Project Mariposa demonstrates our commitment to achieve these aims.”

The aim is to support families with the means to develop, improve and maintain their sustainable production practices.

The Class of ’54

Fish and Chips have long been recognised as Britain’s National dish, no more so than in the 1950’s. In the Class of ’54 there were over 30,000 Fish and Chip shops serving the Country’s only take away food. The primary fare was cod or haddock and chips, fried initially in animal fats, principally dripping and lard. The average price for a medium portion of cod and chips was one shilling (5p in today’s currency) and Friday night was the most popular night for the take away treat. In 1954 the market changed dramatically with the launch of Frymax vegetable oil. Unlike the high level of saturated fat and cholesterol in animal fats, Frymax was pure white premium palm, which had a higher smoke point, was additive free, contained no hydrogenated oil and less than one per cent trans fats. Frymax produced delicious light results and soon became the industry favourite and has remained so until today, the same product with the same consistent results.
