The whelks are caught in the UK using traditional pots, a low impact method of fishing which means minimal damage to the sea floor and marine habitats.
This product was made with a commitment to sustainability and support for the fishermen and fishing authorities.
PROCESS: Once cooked, the meat and shells are separated. The shells are taken to a dedicated area of the factory where they are crushed and cleaned a further three times. They are then taken to the drying room to remove any moisture. Finally, each bag is individually packaged and hand-tied.
