Aegg Comment
Aegg's Jamie Gorman (Procurement Director) recently visited the factory, together with Anthony Coats (Founder) and Haseen Naheem (COO/CFO.
Jamie said “It is always a pleasure to visit the team at our Bulgarian factory. The quality of food packaging they produce for us is first class. Many of the team have worked there for over 20 years, so they know a thing or two about running a super-efficient factory! Their factory is always spotless, the equipment is very well looked after and they go above and beyond to keep the quality of the production really high.”

Jamie went on to say “As well as producing Aegg’s food pots, the Bulgarian factory also works with us on collaborations and outsourced projects with other organisations. This is ideal for when food manufacturers or supermarkets need additional seasonal stock, or for one-off or ongoing projects requiring delivery into Eastern Europe or the UK. A new warehouse has also been added for extra capacity.”
