Meet The Supplier: William Grant & Co
William Grant & Co is one of Northern Ireland's most trusted pork producers, supplying premium quality pork and bacon to retailers, hospitality venues, and foodservice providers across the region. Established with decades of family expertise, the family owned business built on a reputation for consistency, care, and exceptional flavour.
All William Grant & Co products are 100% Northern Irish, sourced from carefully selected farms where animal welfare and sustainable farming practices are at the heart of everything they do. Their pigs are raised in well managed, comfortable environments, fed high-quality diets, and receive daily attention from experienced farmers. This dedication ensures tender, flavoursome pork and bacon that chefs and guests alike can rely on.
William Grant & Co operates to the highest industry standards and is fully accredited under the Red Tractor Assurance scheme, guaranteeing full traceability from farm to fork. Every stage of production is carefully monitored for food safety, hygiene, and welfare, while modern processing and packing facilities allow pork and bacon to be prepared and distributed efficiently, preserving quality and freshness.

Pork and bacon are cornerstones of many of our menus, from hearty breakfasts served to guests each morning, to dishes crafted for lunch, dinner, and special events. This February, our signature dish of the month celebrates William Grant & Co's outdoor-bred Saddleback Pork & Fennel Sausage, a perfect example of the exceptional flavour, quality, and craftsmanship that local, responsibly sourced pork brings to our kitchens.
As Hastings Hotels continues to champion seasonally driven menus and thoughtful sourcing, William Grant & Co exemplifies the kind of partnership we strive for, one rooted in shared values, respect for local farming, and a dedication to sustainability.
