New Milk Vending Machines at Connage Highland Dairy

Connage Highland Dairy, based at Ardersier near Inverness, have this week opened their brand new ‘Connage Express’ vending machine operation.Selling their own organic milk, both pre-bottled and also for self-service customer refills, is relatively new for the dairy which is better known for its range of multi-award-winning organic cheeses.

Open from 7 am until 7 pm, 7 days a week, and accepting cash as well as cards, the express machines not only sell Connage produced milk and cheeses but also products from other local businesses such as eggs and bacon as well as chutneys, biscuits, honey, coffee and more.Milk customers can buy a pre-filled bottle of milk or purchase a 1-litre bottle to refill themselves each time they return.Connage bottled milk is also now available to customers of Ardersier based Macleod Organics as part of their box delivery scheme.

Connage Highland Dairy Owner, Jill Clark, said:“Whilst many customers still come into The Cheese Room where we stock a vast range of cheeses and other items, and many of our customers from further afield, shop online, many people just want to come to a vending machine and take something away quickly. The fact that the Connage Express is open for longer hours than the shop also fits around people’s busy lives.“During our first few days of opening we have seen a fantastic flow of cars coming along and customers seemed to be really enjoying the experience. The range of items is large enough that everybody can find something that they will enjoy and I think that people enjoy getting local, quality products in an easy and efficient way.”Visit www.connage.co.uk to find directions to the farm or for more information about Connage Highland Dairy.
