Six fire tenders and two aerial units were involved in the fire-fighting operation, involving a total of around 50 crew members. Fire-fighters used three jets and a ground monitor to bring the flames under control.

Firefighters have tackled a fire at the Walkers Snack Foods plant in Leicester.
Crews were called to the factory in Bursom Road, Beaumont Leys, just after 7pm yesterday.

A spokesman said: “We had a bit of difficulty moving the machinery to get to the fire but did so with the help of maintenance staff at the factory.
“Cooling jets were used to prevent the fire spreading and workers were moved to another area of the plant for their safety.”
After putting the fire out, firefighters stayed on the scene until 9.22pm to ensure it was safe.

Old Dutch re-brand sees launch of Double Dutch range of Chips

5/20/2014

 
Double Dutch Ripple Chips
Old Dutch Foods initially called them Ripples, but an early re-branding has seen the launch of their new "Double Dutch Thick Ripple Appetizers" Potato Chips. 
The word "appetizer" relates directly to the range profiles: Bacon Cheeseburger Sliders, Buffalo Wing and Blue Cheese Dip, Calamari & Tzatziki Sauce, and Burstin' Onion. 
Old Dutch Foods Brand manager Alice Daszkowski, said, "Our chip experts saw a thicker ripple cut chip delivering double the crunch, a key attribute of Double Dutch Thick Ripple Appetizers Potato Chips. 
"We are continuing to watch exciting new Canadian food trends to draw inspiration for our next Double Dutch flavours. Currently the best seller nationally is the Bacon Cheeseburger Slider flavour. We look forward to seeing how the line will grow in the future."

This comment was added to by National Director of Marketing for Old Dutch Scott Keleman, "People who have grown up with Old Dutch see our brand and our windmill as an endorsement of premium quality snack food products. Old Dutch is a Canadian brand icon with a very loyal following. Our commitment to premium quality snacks, innovation, and support of active communities has made Old Dutch Foods a leader in the industry for over 60 years.
