Rice and All Things Nice KERINS Foods distribute their ambient food and confectionery to both the retail and catering trade here in Ireland, offering the choice of branded and private label products to their customers. An important part of their mix is the La Perdiz (Partridge) rice brand from the Arcesa Group. Grown in the Albufera Natural Park area of Valencia,Arcesa is the rice used in the famous Spanish paella dish. The long-grain rice grown here has an elongated slender kernel that is noted for its very high quality and the consistency of the grain. More importantly when cooked, the grains remain separate and become OLJKW DQG Ă XII\ QRW VWLFN\ At its production facility in Oliva, south of Valencia, rigorous electronic colour sorting removes all kinds of impurities prior to full sterilisation and ensures that Arcesa rice is of the highest quality, and has achieved IFS ISO9000 and BRC Grade 1 accreditation.

Londis Launches Mobile Shopping List Service

LONDIS has recently launched a unique Mobile Shopping List Service for customers. The service can be accessed through the home page of the newly designed Londis website, www.londis.ie The innovative service delivers a subscribers shopping list direct to their mobile phone at a time and date that is convenient for them.

Consider the busy working parent who can now create their shopping list on-line: they can add to it as they remember items throughout the week and have it texted to them at 9.00am on Saturday morning, just before they head to Londis for their weekly shop! They can even re-edit the same list, week after week. /RQGLV FRQVXPHUV ZLOO QHYHU DJDLQ ÂżQG WKHPVHOYHV DW KRPH ZLWK WKHLU VKRSSLQJ EXW PLVVLQJ what they originally set out for!
