Award winning clients
Adrian Cox (pictured here holding the trophy with his wife Jenny and father Stephen - his mother Jeanette was unfortunately not available on the day the photo was taken) recently won the prestigious Tesco Sustainability Dairy Group (TSDG) Farmer of the Year award. Adrian was selected from over 700 farmers across the UK who have milk contracts with Tesco. Having been assessed on the basis of quality (milk quality, cleanliness etc.), value (carbon footprint, consistency of supply), innovation (soil and waste management, environmental factors), service (school visits, workshops, open days) and having finished in the top 4, the farm was then subject to a visit and review by a panel of judges, including last year’s winner. The family farm just over 400 acres of land which is a mix of owned, rented and grass keep. They run 160 dairy cows plus followers and a beef herd with a total head count
at any one time of around 420. All the family undertake roles within the business and contribute to its success. The farm was taken on originally by Adrian’s grandfather in 1966 and A C Mole & Sons are proud to have had a relationship with the family that goes back to the 1970s. Adrian commented “We have had an excellent long-term relationship with A C Mole & Sons and have valued the input from Rob Selley and his predecessors, especially when we have carried out restructuring of our business. Their support and proactive advice has been truly beneficial” We look forward to supporting the family, and indeed the next generation, as they take their business forward.
