A L Saberton Potatoes

11/06/2026

As we have recently gained a few new followers I just thought I'd put a little post on here to introduce ourselves.

We are a fourth generation family run potato and produce merchant father and son team now in our 98th year. The business was started by Albert and Laura Saberton in 1928 and is now in the hands of the third and fourth generation supplying top quality chipping potatoes to fish and chip shops and farm shops. We also have locally grown seasonal fruit and vegetables supplying farm shops, green grocers and market traders.

We are based just outside the beautiful city of Ely, we are able to source the best quality potatoes and locally grown produce grown on the beautiful black fenland soil. All of the potatoes and produce we source are from reputable trusted farms who we have been dealing with for many years. Brown and red onions are also a big part of our business with many of them going into restaurants and the catering trade.

We still trade on the same values started by Albert Saberton by offering top quality potatoes and produce along with a reliable and trustworthy service.

We can have up to seven different varieties of potatoes available at anyone time, they are available in 25kg 10 kg and 5kg paper sacks. Potato and onion sales are available from our warehouse.

Fish and chips is more than a meal.

It’s Friday night tea.
It’s seaside memories.
It’s family tradition.
It’s the smell of freshly cooked chips and golden batter.
It’s part of British food culture.

That’s why Middleton Foods is proud to support National Fish and Chip Day 2026 on Friday 5th June.

Here’s to the shops, teams and suppliers that keep the tradition going ❤️
