Mission Our vision: To be the most successful food company in the world.
Description Finnebrogue is part of Sofina Foods Europe, a family-owned, global food production company with European headquarters in Yorkshire, employing over 8,000 people across the UK and Island of Ireland.
At its core, Finnebrogue is driven by a clear purpose: to make food the best it can be, while doing good for people and the planet. This commitment shapes every aspect of the business—from how products are developed to how people are supported and communities are engaged.
Founded on a spirit of innovation, Finnebrogue first built its reputation producing premium sausages for leading supermarkets before disrupting the market with the launch of its revolutionary Naked Bacon in 2017, made without nitrites. Operating from four sites in Downpatrick, including a state-of-the-art vegetarian facility, the company now produces a wide range of own-label bacon, sausage, burger, and vegetarian products, alongside its own ‘clean-label’ range called Naked.
Underpinning this growth is a strong values-led culture focused on quality, sustainability, and continuous improvement. Finnebrogue is committed to creating meaningful opportunities for its people, investing in skills, wellbeing, and inclusion, while minimising environmental impact and supporting sustainable food production. Its mantra remains unchanged: to make food the best it can be, without being bound by the way it has always been done.
