Hog roast business Swine Dining will mark its first birthday at Saltburn Farmers' Market
A fledgling business which started out a year ago will mark its first birthday at Saltburn Farmers’ Market tomorrow .
Richard Willis started hog roast business Swine Dining last year with the support of his girlfriend of three years Sue Bell.
The couple, who got engaged on Christmas Day last year, have been working on the venture together – with Sue helping on weekends to fit around her full time job.
Richard, 42, said: “The first year has been tough but right now we’re getting a lot of bookings in – they’ve tripled from last year. I’m thinking of investing in a second hog roast so that we can do two bookings in one day.”
The farmer’s market, which has been going six years, kicked off with a great start last month.
Lorna Jackson, market organiser, and co-director of Real Meals Delicatessen said: “We’re so pleased to see Richie doing well - there was a waiting list to get on the market of three years and he waited patiently until there was an opening.
“He’s a great addition to the market – there’s a big queue every second Saturday of the month to get some delicious hog roast!”
The market, held outside Sainsbury’s, has expanded in size since last year – with a new ‘secret square’ opening behind the Consteel engineering office which holds six extra stalls and increases the size of the market by a third.
Tomorrow’s market runs from 9am-2pm.
