A newly created Social Enterprise which takes waste material from the local apple processing industry (peel & cores) , dehydrate them and sell them as a health supplement which is high in fibre and vitamin C together B vitamins.
In this small area of Co Armagh we produce about 50,000 tonnes of Bramley Cooking apples.
Armagh Bramley has PGI status. About 30,000 tonnes of apples are processed for catering/bakery trade . They are peeled and cored then sliced/diced and a preservative added.
We take what is left and process it into a powder. We are the only ones in Ireland to do this and has been seen by Invest NI as an innovative project.
We used heat pump dehydrators .
