Episode 2: Heck Sausages

Duration: 1 hour

First broadcast: on BBC Two ScotlandLatest broadcast: on BBC Two Northern Ireland

Alex looks at trading with the big boys as she meets the Keebles, a family of farmers-turned-sausage producers whose survival relies heavily on the supermarkets that sell their goods. Like many small producers, however, they often feel powerless in that relationship.

Privileged access to Morrisons' food development kitchens reveals some interesting results, and Alex uncovers some secrets behind the layout of Tesco shelves.

Can Alex get a small company like Heck to survive on the shelves of the supermarket and realise their dream of being the UK's number one premium brand? Show less
