Chelmer Foods sources butter beans from the USA, Canada, Turkey and Argentina. Butter beans are mainly used in the retail packing and canning industries.

White butter beans, a.k.a. lima beans, are large, creamy-white beans with a buttery, sweet flavour and creamy texture.

They are commonly used in soups, stews, salads, and casseroles and are often served as a side dish or mixed with other vegetables and herbs.
