Could more Manx fruit and veg be available in previous Shoprite stores?
A farmer from the north of the Island says he’s hopeful he’ll be able to continue to sell his produce to Tesco following the retail giant’s expansion.
Stuart Allanson, of Allanson’s Manx Produce, grows fruit and vegetables on Rhendhoo Farm in Jurby.
He’s supplied Robinsons, and in turn Shoprite, for more than 40 years.
Mr Allanson told Manx Radio he’s optimistic that there’ll still be a spot for locally grown goods in the nine stores:
Police 'actively looking' for drink and drug drivers this Christmas
Fine for man who had to be restrained by five hospital porters
Today's Manxman sailings delayed
MHK questions if reduction in NSC hours goes against Island Plan
