Shire Baked Potatoes

Shire Baked Potatoes Ltd

 

Shire Baked Potatoes Limited is a family run company based in Louth, a small market town at the heart of the Lincolnshire Wolds. We produce pre-cooked, vacuum-packed jacket potatoes for use in food service or for sale under our retail brand 'Dinner Jackets'.

 

The Directors, brothers Blair and Gavin, have over 80 years combined experience in the food industry and since the company started production in 2001, over 50 million potatoes have been supplied to satisfied consumers via some of the leading ‘blue-chip’ food service organisations across the UK and Europe.

 

At Shire, we're passionate about what we do and pride ourselves in combining provenance with unrivalled quality. For all our raw potatoes are sourced locally and for our jackets, each and every potato is hand selected into the process to guarantee the highest possible standard. 

​

Our pre-cooked jackets offer a quick and easy alternative to the classic oven-baked raw potato without compromising the extensive health benefits or perhaps more importantly, the flavour!

 

Containing no additives, colourings or preservatives, our potatoes are suitable for vegetarians, fat free, and can be oven baked in less than 25 minutes and microwaved in less than 5. As well as significant savings on power consumption, it is now possible for jacket potatoes to be ‘cooked to order’, eliminating the issues associated with over-catering.

 

With 8 weeks chilled shelf-life, pre-cooked, chilled jacket potatoes retain much more taste and integrity while also being a more practical option than the frozen alternative.
