Aurivo Consumer Foods has taken home four prestigious awards for food excellence at the Great Taste Awards 2022 and Blas na hÉireann 2022. Both awards celebrate the very best in food and drink products available across retail and wholesale.
Building on Aurivo’s success of previous years, the renowned Connacht Gold Softer Butter, Connacht Gold Garlic and Herb Butter and Organic For Us Low Fat Milk won the renowned Gold Star Awards at the Great Taste Awards.
