Scottish packaging business caters for evolving demands of potato growers
28th October 2024
Potato growers interested in industrial packaging have been offered help by Agrisacks. The Scottish family-run company aims to meet the demands of the potato industry with good quality packaging at competitive prices.
Founded in 2018, the firm has expanded into other packaging industries, but packaging potatoes remains the primary priority.
Potato farmers are dealing with high production costs, notably in fertilisers and seed potatoes. Despite a softening of some costs since the prior year, fertiliser prices remain elevated due to ongoing supply issues.
This extra strain on growers’ finances increases the need for cost and efficiency savings to be found in other avenues, and packaging is a reasonable expenditure to consider.
