GRAHAM’S The Family Dairy is continuing its diversification drive with the launch of Protein 22 – a fruity quark soft cheese product – in several retail chains.

The Stirlingshire company said the new product, which has 22 grammes of protein in every pot, had gone on sale in Home Bargains and Scotmid outlets this month and would be available in Sainsbury’s stores across Scotland from March 5. It is available in strawberry, raspberry, peach and blueberry flavours, and Graham’s said it was “thick and creamy, like a yoghurt”.

Robert Graham, managing director of Graham’s, said: “Protein 22 is an exciting new product that we have worked hard to get just right.”

Non-homogenised organic whole milk is among other new products launched recently by Graham’s. The dairy says half of Scotland’s population buys its products.
