The iconic brand of Colman's Mustard has been produced in Norfolk for over 200 years and is one of the most recognised and respected food brands in the world.
So it is with great pride that Henry Simon announces the successful completion of a new state of the art mustard mill for the company in Norfolk, UK.
The new mustard mill, built on a site at Honingham in the east English county, is a collaborative partnership between Condimentum, Unilever, and English Mustard Growers (EMG), with EMG a UK farmer's collective that supply the mill with all their homegrown mustard seed requirements from local growing areas.
Established in 1878, Henry Simon Ltd is a British company that went on to become a world leader in flour milling sector. After building numerous projects across the globe for over 140 years, today they continue to develop new technologies for milling industry.
'The mill was built following the decision to close the original Henry Simon built Colman's Mustard mill in Norwich and invest in a new site. The new mill produces mustard flour and other speciality products that are packed on site or processed in other facilities to produce mustard paste and a tin packing facility for their very popular dry mustard flour, frequently seen on UK supermarket shelves and for export around the world' says Condimentum Managing Director David Martin.
'The decision to use Henry Simon, to provide milling expertise and equipment, continues a tradition of partnership with the Colman`s brand dating back many years.'
