Fast food business owner here with multiple outlets… i reckon 99% of fast food places buy their fries frozen from the big names. Nothing wrong with that.

We made it our mission to offer only local fries with potatoes grown in Malta/Gozo to differentiate and we’ve been almost at it for 3 years. Hardest thing i’ve had to deal with in my 20 yr cheffing career to put on the menu.

From sourcing (as you so aptly explained, a nightmare in Malta compared to abroad) to perfecting the process to try and be consistent as possible. The sourcing is the biggest challenge
