Kirkconnel

Kelloholm, Kirkconnel, Dumfriesshire, DG4 6RB

Our head office, and the Brown Brothers factory where we've made cooked and sliced meats since moving to Dumfriesshire in 1993.

  • Butchery, cooking, slicing and packing of whole muscle joints, sliced meats, slicing logs, and shredded and diced meats.
  • Laser and high-speed slicing lines, thermoforming, and separate high-risk areas.
  • The 2023 extension added butchery capacity (particularly for Scottish pork), a larger goods-in area with an 800-pallet cold store, a new blast freezer, more cooking capacity and better staff facilities.
