How local oats play a role in the growth ambitions of plant-based drinks manufacturer Framptons
Framptons is the UK’ s leading independent plant-based drinks company, but it has been through several evolutions to reach the position we find it in today. Sales Director, James Mills sheds some light on the company’ s lengthy and fascinating history:“ The company is 125 years old. Its heritage was in egg products; it used to wholesale eggs. Then, over the years, it evolved into breaking eggs into liquid, making liquid egg, and then drying it, freezing it, putting it into cartons, and creating omelette blends. That was the way the business carried on for 100 years. Then, around the year 2000, Framptons started packing beverages for customers to minimize machine downtime.
