Due to popular demand Highland Game’s Scottish venison fillet is once again available for purchase from Costco outlets.

The venison specialists have also introduced their diced venison cuts alongside the prize-winning fillet. Both delicious wild Scottish venison products are stocked throughout 10 of Costco’s top warehouses in the UK.

The Dundee based company joined the American wholesaler alongside other quality brands in order to target the commercial market.

Christian Nissen, owner and managing director of Highland Game said: “We are delighted that our quality fillet and diced venison are being stocked within such a large outlet such as Costco. We are thrilled with the success of the fillet and that it has returned to Costco stores due to the demand from their customers.

The fillet is perfect for hosting a dinner party or Sunday lunch product while the diced is ideal for family dishes and cooking big batches in advance for entertaining, stews, pies, casserole, goulash or curries.”
