Smith Anderson, a Kirkcaldy paper bag maker, signed three-year supply contracts with McDonald's and Burger King worth in excess of GBP 50 million, starting January 2019.
Transcend Packaging, a packaging firm in Ebbw Vale, Wales, was one of two suppliers to win a contract from McDonald's to supply paper straws for all UK and Irish outlets. The company expects to hire 30 extra staff and begin production in August 2018.
Kirkcaldy-based Smith Anderson has agreed a three-year extension to supply paper bags to McDonald's, worth £35 million, following a competitive tender. The deal runs to at least 2020 and extends supply into Poland and central eastern Europe.
