Oats are a historic British Crop, and Framptons Oat Drinks, Oat blends and Oat creams are a fantastic new application for this famous crop. Framptons have established an All British supply chain and have built an Oat Extraction Plant in Somerset. They now have the capability to produce conventional, organic and Gluten Free drinks.
With the plant based dairy alternatives market seeing significant growth, powered by changes in consumer tastes and preferences for sustainable food systems, nobody is better placed than Framptons to fulfill your branding or own label needs for coconut, pea, soya and other plant proteins.
Framptons source their oats from Wessex, and this historic and magical area of South and West England is the base of growing, processing and production, so creating the Wessex Oat Company for the range of blends and varieties is an obvious choice.
Framptons have a long-established relationship with the food service and food manufacturing sectors through their historic egg supply business. As oat becomes an integral ingredient to plant-based dairy products be they sauces, desserts, cheese alternatives or yoghurt alternatives, Framptons will supply a range of options of oat bases, oat creams and oat drinks.
