            The van used by Ladies In Pigs (LIPs) for their work around the country has undergone a transformation. The van, brightly decked in Quality Standard Mark logos has been completely repainted to reflect the change to the Red Tractor logo, though the standards underpinning it all are unchanged.

            Pork that carries the Red Tractor logo has been sourced from assured pig farms and is independently audited for animal welfare, food safety and quality at every stage of the supply chain' 
            The ladies of LIPs can be seen at agricultural show and the like all around the country promoting Red Tractor pork by giving cookery demonstrations and tastings. 
            LIPs chairman Sue Woodall said: "The van has given sterling service but was starting to look a little tired after visiting hundreds of show over the years. 
            "The repaint with new logos and graphics has made a real difference and will, I'm sure, serve us very well for many years to come."
