GUESTS welcomed onto Brittany Ferries’ new vessel on Friday ahead of its inaugural voyage were presented with a bag of braided Pink Roscoff Onions - a special symbol for the company with a long history of connecting Bretons and Britons.

The Salamanca, the country’s first ever natural gas powered ferry, welcomed 120 VIPs on board before her first commercial crossing to Bilbao on March 27.

Each was presented with Pink Roscoff Onions gifted by company president and working farmer Jean-Marc Roué.
