Our Story

At Myton Food Group, we have a legacy to be proud of. We’re British farming’s biggest single direct customer, we buy from highly valued suppliers and we’re passionate about the quality of our food, but also the way we work as a team, in partnership across our supply chain.

We have always been innovative and forward thinking. We took on our first produce factory, Cutler, back in 1976, with our 19th site opening recently, processing fish from the Southwest of Cornwall. We have our roots in the Morrisons Supermarket business. We pack and process fresh meats and fish, savoury and sweet pies, fruit and veg, flower bouquets, bread and more.
