Following the success of the Taboo concession in its store in Enniskillen, Asda is set to open four more Taboo donut concessions by the end of 2022, offering customers donuts, Italian gelato, cookies, brownies, and freshly ground coffee.

Established in 2018, family run Taboo Donuts employs more than 40 staff with the business expanding extensively during Covid. The concessions will supply six product lines to Asda Bangor, Coleraine and Antrim as well as Portadown in an exclusive contract with the supermarket chain.

Making donuts fresh every day is the way we do it at Taboo, from Eton Mess to a Lemon Meringue – we love to get creative with our flavours. We are constantly looking for new ideas and take our inspiration from customer feedback.
