Our Makers

Myers, a traditional bakery in Horncastle have been producing the finest artisan breads, pastries and many other morning goods since 1901.

The family run business have won many awards for their products and continue to use the same recipes that have been in the family for four generations.

Cartmel started baking Sticky Toffee puddings in the back kitchen of their Village Shop a good 20 years ago.

Word soon got out and it seemed like everyone wanted some, so they had to move to a bigger kitchen. But however busy they are, it’s still handmade, and there’s still nothing to match it.

Potts Partnership is literally that – a partnership of Potts.

Owen Potts utilises his 20 years' experience of development and manufacturing in the fine foods industry to create our products, while Michelle Potts deals with sales and customer service. Potts Partnership began in late 2007 in the kitchen of the family's Marlborough home, and its first sauces launched in spring 2008.

'Produced in partnership with our Holstein cows'

Simon Jones, who started to make the multi-award winning Lincolnshire Poacher Cheese, is the fourth generation to be running the farm, which has been in the family since 1917. It is situated on the edge of the beautiful Lincolnshire Wolds about ten miles from the east coast. The lush pastures sit on chalky land, which enables him to have a successful dairy herd in an area where dairy farms are very scarce and cheese making is virtually unknown.

'Live life in full flavour'

The Belazu Ingredient Company source and create authentic Mediterranean ingredients that are trusted and loved by chefs and consumers alike. School friends, Adam and George. They visited George's mum, Ailsa in Provence, 1991. She took them to the local market where they sampled the best quality olives that people in Britain could only dream of. They took ten buckets back to England, and their first customer was in Oxford. The Fresh Olive Company was established, in turn this evolved into Belazu.

The Wilkin family have been farming at Tiptree, Essex, since 1757, and making quality preserves since 1885.

They grow a wide range of traditional English fruits and use them to make conserves, condiments, and other treats in their nut-free factory by the farm. They received their first Royal Warrant from George V in 1911, and remain Royal Warrant holders as purveyors of Tiptree Products to Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II. 

Alfred Enderby has been smoking salmon and haddock in a wonderfully traditional way for over 100 years.

Their traditional smokehouse in Grimsby, with its distinctive ornate iron cowls, is roughly a century old, with two generations of the Enderby family involved in running it for two-thirds of that time. They pride themselves on the high quality of skill and craftsmanship that goes into their now award-winning smoked fish products.
