Suma launches organic beer
Kathryn Moore THE UK's biggest independent distributor of organic food, Halifax-based Suma Foods, has launched a range of organic beers.
The beers are all CAMRA (Campaign for Real Ale) approved, certified organic by the Soil Association and are vegan.
The beer is brewed locally by a Dutch master brewer who the company has been working with over the past 18 months to develop the range.
The names for the beers were chosen by Suma's customers in a competition and reflect local places and
folklore in the Calder
Valley.
The beer will be sold through independent retailers and a small number of CAMRA real ale pubs.
Suma foods started life as a distributor of wholefoods in the mid-seventies, and has grown rapidly.
Today, the company is worth 20m and has more than 6,000 product lines which it supplies throughout Europe.
This is the first time Suma has introduced alcohol to its range of 1,500 own brand products – the company is more famous for soups,
pasta sauces and dried
fruit.
