Company Overview

Puffin Produce evolved from the original Pembrokeshire Potato Marketing Group, a quality growers’​ co-operative formed during the 1970s. Puffin Produce was created in 1995 and we remain true to our collective roots, set firmly in the Pembrokeshire countryside. Today, Puffin Produce is a successful company working from our Withybush headquarters. We supply a range of quality Welsh potatoes and vegetables throughout Wales, including our delicious Protected Geographical Indicator (PGI) produce: Pembrokeshire Earlies Potatoes, and Welsh Leeks. Our premium brand ‘Blas y Tir’​ meaning ‘Taste of the Land’​, supplies genuinely Welsh produce to meet increasing demand from Welsh shoppers. The brand also proudly showcases our partnership with our sister-company, Pembrokeshire Creamery Ltd, through the production of Blas y Tir Welsh milk. We also supply a range of retailers and wholesalers throughout Wales with some of most popular produce varieties, as well as our seasonal daffodils. At Puffin Produce we’re small enough to take care over every detail of growing great fresh produce. But we’ve also made major investments in state-of-the-art equipment to ensure that we deliver top quality and freshness to Welsh shoppers, every week of the year.
