CO-PROMOTION WITH REAL FOODS, EDINBURGH DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR FOOD COMES FROM?
If you have any nagging doubts about the origins of your food, Real Foods has been keeping short and traceable supply chains from around the time when horses were still widely used for farming.
For 50 years Real Foods has been selling organic fruit, vegetables, grains and many other products. We are passionate about knowing who and where our foods are coming from. By investing in Soil Association certification we have full traceability on our organic produce. When we say our products are organic you can be certain that they have been produced to some of the highest organic standards out there, we can even tell you where your food was grown and who by.
• Better - Organic farming is better for the environment, better for animals and healthier for you.
• Trust - The Soil Association symbol marks organic products you can trust. Only 80% of the UK’s organic goods are certified by the Soil Association, but all of ours are.
• Natural - Organic certification means complete traceability and ensures you can be certain your food is without chemicals, nasty additives or GM.
We have been providing affordable organic goods you can trust for 50 years, so you could say this is our field of expertise.
