Salmon Wagon set for second summer tour of Scotland

After the success of 2022 - when Mowi’s fundraising Salmon Wagon raised thousands of pounds in vital funds for charities and local causes by serving up delicious barbequed salmon at events across Scotland - the food truck is set to hit the road again.

 

The aquaculture firm’s Salmon Wagon will attend major events from Rosyth to Kyle of Lochalsh - stopping at Achiltibuie, Appin, Benbecula, Isle of Harris, Isle of Skye, Kilchoan, Newtonmore and North Uist along the way.

 

Staffed by Mowi, 100 per cent of proceeds from the sale of food benefits local causes.

 

Announcing the 10 causes to benefit, 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 10 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.”

 

The events selected by Mowi Scotland for 2023, which are drawn from as wide a range of charities and geographical areas possible, include: Ardnamurchan Show and Sports (Friday July 21); South Harris Agricultural Show (Tuesday July 25); North Uist Show (Thursday July 27); Eilean Dorcha Festival, Benbecula (Friday July 28) - supporting community investment; Skye Agricultural Show (Saturday August 5) - supporting Portree and Bracadale Free Church.

 

Mowi has extended a huge thank you to all the charities and communities who submitted an application to have the Mowi Salmon Wagon attend their event in

 

2023.
