Offering a generous 5% off its strawberries dipped in chocolate every time Andy Murray wins a match, the total discount to date (Thursday 30th June) is up to 25% off.
If and when our Scottish tennis star wins the championship, Berry Scrumptious will honour its offer to a grand total of 50% up until midnight on Sunday.
Strawberries are synonymous with Wimbledon and it is no surprise, therefore, that the ever-resourceful Berry Scrumptious has served up its Belgian chocolate-covered strawberries at centre court for several years.
This year the firm thought it would join the Murray mania from its family farm in Aberdeenshire by offering all Andy's supporters a winning chance, too.
"We are keen Wimbledon fans but it is all the more fantastic to be watching a fellow Scot playing on centre court," said Claire Rennie of Berry Scrumptious.
"We wanted to do something to show our support for Andy Murray so we thought we would match his winnings with a discount on our best-selling Wimbledon product."
Murray's dreams of winning his first Grand Slam title are closer than ever following a superb performance against Lopez on Wednesday. Scottish tennis hero Murray is now set to play world No. 1 Rafa Nadal in the semi-final today, with a 50-50 chance of playing French Jo-Wilfried Tsonga or No. 2, Novack Djokovic, in the final on Sunday.
Berry Scrumptious specialises in producing fresh chocolate-covered strawberries using soft fruit grown on the family farm at Rosehearty, near Fraserburgh. These are delivered throughout the UK as luxury gifts or served at weddings and events, including the BAFTA Film Awards and Wimbledon.
The product range has expanded to include chocolate bars with freeze-dried raspberries and strawberries which is currently stocked in specialist food stores throughout Scotland.
