The Produce Stakes also known as the British Breeders Stakes is a greyhound racing competition held annually at Nottingham Greyhound Stadium. It was originally known as the British Breeders Forum Produce Stakes.[1]

It was inaugurated in 1982 at Harringay Stadium but has moved home several times. Following the closure of Harringay in 1987 the competition switched to Wembley. In 1993 a Madonna concert forced the event to be switched to sister track Hall Green Stadium where it stayed until 2008.[2] The Greyhound Racing Association allowed Nottingham to have the competition rights from 2009.[3]
