Milgro

1 medium onion counts as 1 of your 5 a day!

Since 1989, Milgro have been growing onions on the Miller family farm, nestled between the
foothills of Binevenagh Mountain and the banks of Lough Foyle, in the heart of Limavady’s Roe
Valley.

As Northern Ireland’s largest commercial grower and packer of onion products, Milgro are best placed to cater for the needs of customers and consumers across Northern Ireland and beyond.
As well as providing “own label” whole onions for all Henderson Group, Sainsburys, Asda and Co-Op stores in NI, Milgro’s multi-award winning Crispy Onions can also be found on the shelves of Spar, Eurospar, VivoXtra, Tesco, Asda, Sainsburys and Lidl stores, together with leading independent butchers.

Milgro’s Crispy Onions have been recognised by the Irish Quality Foods and Drink Awards in 2021,
2022 and 2023, whilst also receiving a prestigious award from Great Taste in 2022 and 2024 for both
Original and Flame Grilled Steak flavours, and added an award from Blas na hÉireann Irish Food Awards in 2023.

Determined to build on these accolades, Milgro have extended their Foodservice business to include Henderson and Lynas Foodservice, as well as Musgrave NI and ROI. November 2022 saw the exciting ONIT! Onions from Milgro land on shelves in ROI, initially with Tesco Ireland, but Eurospar, Spar, Mace, Londis and XL stores were soon to follow. The brand received a glowing endorsement when it was selected as one of three winning brands for the prestigious Grow With Aldi initiative, to place the
product in every Aldi store in Ireland. 2025 has seen the brand gain UK wide distribution with Cress Company, as well as a number of independent wholesalers.
