Taylors £360k investment will make seed potato sales grow

Visitors to the Taylors Bulbs stand (19G02) at Glee, which opens its doors on Monday 14 September, will learn how the company’s recent £360,000 investment in a new seed potatoes packing line and cold store will further improve service levels.

Seed potato orders are keeping the Taylors team busy in the run-up to Glee, where you will also be able to see the new packaging for Taylors’ popular Taster Packs (left and below).

The £200,000 investment in a new packing line and a further £160,000 investment in a 1,400-tonne cold store facility were made primarily to increase capacity and speed of turnaround.

The family-owned Lincolnshire-based bulb business has been supplying seed potatoes to garden retailers in the UK and Ireland since 2004.

Adam Taylor, director of Taylors Bulbs, said: “The new line was initially used for the packing of our UK-grown daffodils but it has been purchased primarily for expansion of the seed potato business.  The new store was anticipated when we built the shed it is housed in so we were able to make use of pre-drilled steels to erect it pretty quickly. The store has also been used for controlling conditions for bulb storage during the summer as well as for harvest from our farming activities.”

The majority of the packing line has been manufactured in the UK.
