The pig farmer taking on Tesco - BBC News

The pig farmer taking on Tesco - BBC News: "Richard Baugh's family have been raising pigs for three generations at Woodside Farm in rural Nottinghamshire.
But Mr Baugh says he's been forced to change the name of his business after Tesco rebranded its own label pork products as "Woodside Farms".
He's now threatening legal action if the supermarket giant doesn't drop its new branding.
"What bothers me the most is it's not necessarily British food they're putting it on," says Mr Baugh, who's changed his business name to "Bofs Hogs" to differentiate it from Tesco.
"It's European pork which sometimes isn't under our strict regulations."
A spokesperson for Tesco said the supermarket was not willing to comment, but in the past it has said the brands have been popular with customers."
