Millbrook Edible Oils

In 2012, Millbrook Foods and Millbrook Edible Oils began to adopt green practices in their business.  It expanded its business to reduce waste plastic for its customers.  With the new innovations adapted by Millbrook Edible Oils, this business activity can be categorised as ‘clean technologies’, ‘food processing’ and ‘waste management’. 

Millbrook Foods has been providing quality food to Irish consumers for more than 85 years. Products include seafood, bread, meat, sauces, cakes, pastries and ‘Millbrook Food To Go’. More recently, the company established Millbrook Edible Oils, which supplies cooking oils to the catering industry and food manufacturers throughout Ireland.  Reducing plastic waste for customers is completely in line with the company’s ethos and customer focus.  These innovations have allowed Millbrook to reduce the waste plastic in their company by up to 85%!
