Community

It’s important to be proud of your heritage and we like to support local sports clubs and societies through sponsorship activities. We like to help local clubs, charities, sports teams and more throughout the year, and regularly donate our time and Hampers to local fund-raising galas.

In 2021, we were announced as the brand-new title sponsor of the Mash Direct Belfast City Marathon in 2022! The Marathon will return to the May Bank Holiday Weekend in 2022, celebrating the 40th year of the Belfast City Marathon, and our first year as Title Sponsor.

We work closely with universities providing both work experience and paid internship programmes to help hopeful graduates gain the skills and experience needed to kick-start their career in the food industry.

At Mash Direct, we like to help out local charities as much as we can. We work closely with many charities, including Simon Community and FoodStock, to help donate surplus food (that would otherwise end up in landfill sites)! In 2021, we contributed over 40 tonnes of produce, helping to make approximately over 400,000 portions for vulnerable people in Northern Ireland.

Regularly running education programmes in conjunction with local schools helps us spread the word about the importance of farming and agriculture. It also gives children the chance to see how vegetables are grown as well as their nutritional benefits, helping to promote a healthy lifestyle.
