Glens of Antrim Potatoes in administration, 95 jobs lost as trading ends

Founded in 1972, the company supplied potatoes across the UK and Ireland and launched its crisp brand in 2015. It employed 95 people, nearly all now redundant, with a small number kept on to support the administration.

Rising sector costs created cash flow pressure. The directors explored refinancing and new investment, but neither proved viable. The administrators are inviting expressions of interest in the business and its assets.
