Fife distillery brews up £1.1m contract with discounter Aldi

Eden Mill produces a range of drinks from craft beers to gin and whisky
Eden Mill produces a range of drinks from craft beers to gin and whisky

Fife-based craft distiller and brewer Eden Mill has landed a new £1.1 million supply contract with discount grocer Aldi.

Guardbridge-based Eden Mill has agreed to extend its current beer supplier relationship with the fast-growing supermarket to its bespoke gins and pre-mixed cocktails range.

Eden Mill was founded by Paul Miller in 2012 as Scotland’s first combined brewery and distillery and has enjoyed strong growth.

Mr Miller said he was delighted by the latest tie-up with Aldi.

“The deal with Aldi is a great step forward for our business and, with gin popularity on the rise, we’re looking forward to growing our relationship with Aldi over the coming months to introduce even more shoppers to Scottish craft gin.”

Under the deal, limited edition Eden Mill gins such as its chilli and ginger variety will be available in store for at least a year, while the cocktails are part of a promotion.

Paul Miller, founder of Eden Mill, said: “With the Botanical Project our distillers have created three amazing varieties of gin. These will be on Aldi shelves for at least the next 12 months and we see great potential to extend this in the future.”

Graham Nicolson, group buying director for Aldi in Scotland, said: “Sourcing the best quality Scottish products will always be one of our biggest priorities and we’re focused on increasing our range of Scottish products from 350 to 400 over the next two years.

“With a supplier like Eden Mill on board, we’re another step closer to realising that ambition.”
