Del Monte, the brand best known for its canned fruit, has teamed up with D2 International to launch a duo of Salad Cream condiments developed specifically for the UK market.
The new additions, Salad Cream and Light Salad Cream, are rolling out in Asda from this month with an RSP of £2.29 (510g) in a top-down squeezy, recyclable bottle. They join a wider range of sauces – Ketchup, Classic BBQ and Jerk BBQ with Pineapple – developed by D2 International in Manchester using recipes that incorporate some of Del Monte’s most popular products.
Martin Tilney, Senior Commercial Director for Del Monte UK and Europe, said: “Our collaboration with D2 International has resulted in a versatile store cupboard staple with a delicious creamy, tangy flavour, making it an ideal condiment whether you enjoy it on salads, in sandwiches and wraps, for dipping or as a recipe ingredient. D2 international shares Del Monte’s commitment to deliver affordable products using fresh ingredients with no compromise on quality.”
Stephen Simpson, Head of Grocery Sales at D2 International Manchester, added: “We’re proud to be working with Del Monte on this new development of Del Monte Salad Cream range which allows us to offer the best quality products to our customers. Del Monte is well recognised as a leading household name in the fruit sector and we are excited to work with them to expand their offering into condiments. We’re looking forward to seeing the response from customers as the products launch into store in Asda.”
