Glasgow-based wholesaler Lomond is launching a new range of American-style sandwiches.

The Eat Around the World offering of 14 different sandwiches was inspired by a trip to New York by the company’s managing director Sam Henderson.

The range includes Mexican chicken, The Cuban, The Aussie, and posh bacon and egg.

“We know that food to go is likely to be a major area of growth in the coming years and so we have made this a focus,” said Henderson.

“We want to encourage our customers to use the very best ingredients on the market to create food-to-go products that are well-presented, healthy and on-trend.” A new Most Wanted range of 15 baguettes has also been launched, which includes tuna mayo, gammon and cheddar ploughman’s, and firecracker chicken.

“These sandwich ranges are ideal for retailers and caterers looking to create a local point of difference and appeal to new customers, as well as offering a value alternative to some of the options on the high street,” added Henderson.

“We launched this concept to our customers through networking days at our presentation kitchen in Port Dundas and they proved to be a huge hit and demand for our sandwich concepts is already incredibly high.”
