FARMERS from the Forth and Clyde region will be taking to their local Aldi store in Clydebank this weekend to encourage shoppers to support the industry and buy the quality local produce available on their doorsteps.
The promotional event will see NFU Scotland members meeting and greeting customers this Saturday, September 24, from 12pm to 3pm.
NFUS regional chairman for Forth and Clyde, local farmer Tom French, commented: “There has been a lot happening during September to promote the high quality Scottish produce available to consumers.
“This event is part of a wider roadshow NFUS has organised at supermarkets and farmers’ markets across the country in recent months. We will be encouraging shoppers to buy Scottish, support their farmers and our industry. Our produce is some of the best in the world and is available right on their doorsteps.
“Customers these days want quality – and that is what Scottish farmers produce and supply. In these difficult and uncertain times within the agricultural sector, that support means a lot.”
