Nostalgia
North Kesteven councillors were impressed when they were given a tour of one of the district's largest factories in 1993 - Adams Pork Products in Ruskington.
Featured in The Standard, they learned that the original factory was founded in 1926 by local farmers who formed a co-operative to produce their own bacon. It was later bought and traded as Ruskington Foods making pork pies and Lincolnshire Plum Loaf. Adams purchased it and invested heavily, leading to a production area of 75,000 sq ft and over 500 employees. It was now supplying nearly all the High Street supermarkets with pork pies, sausages and plum loaf.
Were you among the staff working on the sausage line? We would like to hear from you if you know who was in the photo. Email: [email protected] or call 01529 415981 or message us at www.facebook.com/thesleafordstandard
