About this company

Linden Foods Limited is a Northern Ireland registered meat processing company based at Annesborough Industrial Estate, Lurgan, listed on Companies House under SIC code 10110, processing and preserving meat. Its website now presents it under the ABP UK brand, part of ABP Food Group, with the Lurgan site listed among ABP's UK facilities. ABP UK describes itself as a food business specialising in the supply and development of British and Irish beef and lamb products for retail, foodservice and wholesale customers, working with supplying farmers and operating multiple processing sites across the UK. The Lurgan entity therefore functions as one of the group's meat processing operations rather than a standalone independent business.
