The creamery at Lifton first went into action in 1917, producing dried milk and later creamed rice. It’s famous as the home of the Ambrosia range, most popular of which is the delicious Ambrosia Devon custard, processing 50 million litres of West Country milk every year. The site employs over 300 people and supports a number of apprentice positions. It's also where our research and development team for desserts is based and where Ambrosia ready to eat porridge was invented.

Brands made here: McDougalls and Be-Ro.

The Mill was bought by McDougalls in 1917 but sadly burned down in 1925 and reopened in 1928. In 1957 Hovis-McDougalls was formed and then four years later became Rank Hovis McDougall until April 2015 when it was acquired by Premier Foods. Just under 50 people work here and the site processes anywhere from 48,000 tonnes to 58,000 tonnes of self-raising and plain flour annually, using traditional milling methods and machinery which rely on the skills of our specialist, expert millers.
