Bowland Forest Foods (BFF) is getting ready to celebrate its sixth anniversary, with bosses saying the 40-strong farmer-led partnership is going from strength to strength.
This year alone they have sent produce to events all over the country and more than doubled turnover.
The initiative helps its members receive a premium for selling their stock though them.
A percentage of this is then reinvested in on-farm environmental work, such as environmentally sensitive land management, hedge restoration and pond creation.
Nearly six years into the initiative, turnover exceeds £250,000 and two full time jobs have been created.
The BFF says the scheme has helped make a real difference to local farmers, business and people.
Chris Smith, company secretary and general manager of the BFF, said: "The last year has seen a tremendous increase for us. We now turn over more than a quarter of a million pounds which is an increase of 60% on 2005.
"There's no doubt that the business has made an impact locally. We're getting local produce into prestigious establishments like Northcote Manor and we sent meat down to a function in Cambridge recently."
He says the secret to the BFF's success is simple.
"I think two things are happening, firstly, the quality is there. We source our meats through local farmers who are experienced in providing the sort of grade of animal the market requires.
"But I think what is also important is that there is now a considerable drive towards traceability and locally produced products and people do want to know where the food is coming from.
"They only have to look out of their windows to see Bowland Fells."
Produce-buyers in Garstang and surrounding areas will have tasted a little of the partnership's success too.
A network of outlets was established to sell BFF produce when the collective was first set up.
One of them is Collinsons, Church Street, Garstang.
Owner Tim Hamlet said: "I'm in great favour of it. A lot of customers who come in here want to know where the meat has come from and our trade has increased because of it.
"It's the traceability of it that people like."
Eric Dawson, co-owner of Hind Quarter, Barton Square, Knott End, says the BFF has also helped increase his sales.
He said: "The reason we use them is because of the locality of the produce and also because they can identify a farmer that can supply us with the exact type of produce I need.
"So I can retain consistency in the produce, rather than stocking supply which may be made in different places every week. Bowland provide consistent quality.
"We have increased sales and I'd like to think that is because the shop is going the right way, but without consistent quality produce, you can't do it."
Edward Walmsley, general manager at Gibbon Bridge, Chipping, said: "As a hotel, wherever possible we do try and source our ingredients locally.
"For our clientele, traceability is important. It is something we feel quite strongly about."
