Winner: Young's Seafood
The success of Young's Annan operation has been underpinned by the development of the company's formed scampi business in 2009 and the introduction of Scampi Bites in 2011. It has continued to increase its production volumes, against a backdrop of increased raw material costs, and it now plays a crucial role in helping Young's maintain its 50% market share in scampi. The judges were impressed by what Young's had achieved: "It's a good news story: Young's has turned the site around from the brink of disaster."
