JCS Fish's BigFish Brand Salmon with Garden Mint was honored with the "Meaty and Fishy Ready Meals" category award at this week's "FreeFrom Food Awards" in London.

The awards recognize the best British food products that are free from gluten, soya, additives and other allergens.

"We are absolutely delighted to have received this further recognition which we think proves that BigFish Brand has some of the best salmon dishes around!  It's great news for our Grimsby team and for our growing business," said JCS Fish founder Louise Coulbeck, who created the company with her husband, Andrew.

BigFish Brand Salmon with Garden Mint has won other awards in recent years, including the Deliciously Yorkshire Awards (2010), a finalist in The Grocer Magazine's New Product Awards (2014) and a Great Taste Award last year.

JCS Fish, founded in Grimsby in 2000, specializes in prepared salmon products under its BigFish Brand and is also a major supplier of salmon to the catering trade.

JCS Fish has a turnover of around £6 million ($8.7 million/€7.6 million) a year and employs 40 people.
