Mash Direct is delivering direct to your door service

Mash Direct, the award-winning ‘field to fork’ convenience vegetable accompaniments brand

The vegetables are available for delivery across Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland from the Mash Direct family farm in County Down.

The service has lots of delivery slots available and provides convenience to busy customers and their families and is now needed more than ever in the fight against COVID-19 as people are required to isolate at home.

Jack Hamilton, Chief Operations Officer at Mash Direct, explained: “We are a sixth-generation family farm and our heritage was delivering vegetable boxes to the doors of our customers. We are simply going back to our roots to do home deliveries and combining that with the modern e-commerce shop on our website. This way we can deliver fresh local vegetables to everyone’s doorsteps. We are also very happy that we have lots of delivery slots available and are aiming to ramp up this service to be able to carry out daily deliveries if needed.”

Mash Direct is also offering a ‘Feed the Heroes Box’ which can be delivered to any hospital in Northern Ireland or Ireland for healthcare staff and key workers who are working tirelessly to combat COVID-19. These boxes can be purchased for £12.50. Each box retails at £20 (with a £3.50 delivery charge to the Republic of Ireland or free delivery on orders of over £75).

Tailored box selections include: The Spring Box for dining in at home: Roast Potatoes x 2, Mashed Potato x 2, Carrot and Parsnip x 2, Mashed Turnip, Champ, Red Cabbage, Green Cabbage, Potato Cakes, Cauliflower Cheese Gratin. The Healthy Box, made up of Carrot & Parsnip × 2, Beer Battered Chips × 2, Champ, Chilli Baby Bakes × 2, Green Cabbage, Carrot & Parsnip For One × 2. The Roast Box containing Mashed Potato × 2, Carrot & Parsnip × 2, Red Cabbage & Beetroot, Roast Potatoes × 2, Green Cabbage, Cauliflower Cheese Gratin × 2, Mashed Turnip and Champ. The Party Box, containing eight products - Beer Battered Chips, Potato Croquettes × 2, Sweet Potato Fries × 2, Carrot & Parsnip Fries, Chilli Baby Bakes and Beer Battered Onion Rings.

Alternatively, you can purchase a ‘Mix & Match’ box which can be tailored to include your Mash Direct personal favourites at £22.50.

Utilising six generations of the Hamilton family’s farming expertise, Mash Direct vegetables are gently steam cooked immediately after harvesting, guaranteeing an unrivalled freshness of flavour with no compromise on either the nutritional benefits or natural texture of the vegetable.

Mash Direct also recently initiated a campaign to help job seekers find work by launching Feed the Nation NI (www.feedthenationni.com), a new employment match making service in Northern Ireland.

The campaign aims to ensure there is no disruption in supply so supermarkets can remain stocked and the NHS can be supplied with food whilst the United Kingdom sees an unparalleled rise in demand. The initiative will also enable those looking for work in the current climate to gain employment in the food and drink industry.
