Rowes rejoin as Official Pasty

The Cornish Pirates are delighted to announce Rowes Bakers are partners of the club once again for the 25/26 season. Rekindling a long standing relationship, Rowes become the official pasty of the Cornish Pirates on match day starting from this Friday against Exeter Chiefs.

Rowes opened their first bakery on Falmouth’s high street back in 1949 and had one ambition in mind. To offer exceptional quality at a great price. It was a philosophy that soon grew a loyal following and saw Rowe’s flourish into a household Cornish name. Today, with over 20 bakery shops and two purpose-built production facilities supplying major food businesses UK-wide, Rowes still follow this simple approach. Much of their veg and dairy produce is Cornish born and bred, and the potatoes are still delivered by tractor to our door every morning. Their meats, wherever possible, are sourced from quality assured Red Tractor British farms.

Rowes celebrate their traditional recipes, they’ve lasted for good reason and deserve respect. But their talented team of industry leading development chefs also take inspiration from Cornwall’s proud food heritage and ever-changing culinary fashions to innovate delicious new products in state-of the art facilities.

The result is a bakery that knows its roots as it anticipates food-service trends. A tasty mix.

Cornish Pirates Head of Commercial, Ross Hancock, said:

“We are absolutely delighted to work with Rowes again for the upcoming season! The Cornish Pirates and Cornwall are synonymous with pasties, so to have such a recognisable brand from within the duchy on board is a massive coup for us and a no brainer. Rowes and the Pirates have always had a great relationship, dating back to our first ever season, so it’s great to get it back up and running. 

Rowes Bakers National Sales lead Jon Foster added:

“Rowes Cornish Bakers are thrilled to be teaming up with the Cornish Pirates once again. As a proud Cornish brand, supporting local sport and community is at the heart of what we do — and there’s no better match than pasties and Pirates! This partnership celebrates our shared heritage and passion for Cornwall, and we’re excited to be part of the journey this season.”
