Mowi’s Salmon Wagon back on the road for summer
Mowi Scotland has announced the summer schedule for its “Salmon Wagon”, which raises funds to support good causes at events throughout the country.
In summer 2023 the aquaculture leader’s Salmon Wagon is set to attend 10 major events from Rosyth to Kyle of Lochalsh – with stops at Achiltibuie, Appin, Benbecula, Isle of Harris, Isle of Skye, Kilchoan, Newtonmore and North Uist along the way.
The Wagon is stocked and staffed by Mowi, and 100% of proceeds from the sale of food from the charity food truck will be used to support local causes.
Jayne MacKay, Community Engagement Officer at Mowi Scotland, said: “After the success of last year we are excited to hit the road again to support another ten brilliant events, which are vital social occasions for our local communities. From village galas, agricultural shows and Highland games to festivals, women’s shinty finals and fundraisers for RNLI lifeboat stations, we can’t wait to show our support for these gatherings which forms a key part of Mowi’s commitment to help the communities we work in thrive.”
