Get your hands on a #supersagitta mug!

Sagitta have long since been a favourite chipping potato for the nation’s 10,000 fish & chip shops. They are a good shape which helps reduce preperation time and waste, and fry very well to give a great tasting chip

Many of you are frying Sagitta at the moment and our friends at HZPC have come up with a great giveaway for you to enjoy using whilst working in your shops. We have another 50 fantastic #SuperSagitta mugs up for grabs for fish and chip shop owners.

Many of you saw them at our Chippy Chat IOE

Open Day, where suppliers and friers were all keen to get their hands on a mug. Local company

Profry (who specialise in building bespoke Mobile

Fish & Chip Vans) love their new bright new mugs and have been promoting them on their social network sites.

Already the owners of many top shops in the country have their hands on one of this year’s desirable freebies! Burton Road Chippy, Lincoln and the Fiddlers Elbow, Leintwardine were amongst the first in getting hold of this must have item and are happy with their prize! Lesley

Graves co-owner of Burton Road Chippy said.”

We have been frying some Sagitta recently, and as usual they were very good. They produce a lovely golden chip, and the fry is lovely. We were pleased to receive our mug and will look after it. I think we were the first shop in the UK to get one!”

The mugs have been winging their way right across the UK (as do Sagitta) as we speak. Lee

Penaluna received his in Hirwaun, Aberdare

Wales. He was very pleased with both his mug and also the Sagitta he has been using in his

famous fish & chip shop. Lee said. “We are always pleased to use Sagitta in our shop, they have a great yield size and shape are very good with very little work, they also make a great tasting chip.”

In Scotland, Sagitta mugs have arrived at both the Bay at Stonehaven & The Fish Hoose Thornton. Owner Colin Cromar is pictured with his mug & is pleased to promote Sagitta in his shop.

Fish & Chip Guru Mark Petrou uses locally grown Sagitta at his Petrou Bros shop in Chatteris. Mark said “The Sagitta have been great this season, they have a golden colour, fry well and our customers really enjoy them” Thanks for my mug, it comes in handy in the shop” he added.

One of our mugs even ended up in one of the most well-known fish and chip towns in the UK, Whitby. Fish and Chip Shop of the year winner Stuart Fusco received one at his Quayside Restaurant. He said “It was nice to receive a mug, we use Sagitta when they are available and find them easy to use, good size and a very nice fry colour.”

Finally on the coast of North Norfolk, renowned chef and fryer Eric Snaith was pleased to grab a mug at his shop Erics. He said “‘We’re always happy when frying Sagitta at our three shops, they have the perfect balance in texture and the flavour is great. I’m a big fan and so are our customers.”
