Big Pot Soups arrive in the Asda aisles for the first time

Established in 2009, the Big Pot Co makes award winning, nutritious soups using local ingredients.

The new deal with Cookstown company will see Big Pot Co’s Chicken & Vegetable, Potato and Leek and Cream of Tomato soups (500g) available to purchase in selected Asda stores across Northern Ireland.

Commenting on becoming a new supplier to Asda and bringing three soups to the shelves, Alison Seaney, Director at Big Pot Co: “The Big Pot Co is delighted to supply our core product range to Asda stores for the first time.

“We take great pride in making our products in small batches to ensure they taste great and give people traditional, homely soups in a convenient 500g pot format.

“We hope Asda customers will enjoy our three hero varieties this Winter.”

Emma Swan, Asda Buying Manager added: “It’s great to bring three more locally produced lines to our shelves, especially given our customers are such strong advocates of Northern Irish products.

“As the nights get darker and the days get colder, our customers will reach for warm comfort food that brings them timeless and much loved flavours – and the Chicken & Vegetable, Potato and Leek and Cream of Tomato soups will do exactly that!”
