“Right from the start, we set out to be a food retailer and kitchen with a conscience, putting people and planet at the forefront of everything we do.
“We have recruited a passionate team and a host of fantastic local suppliers, attracted by the company’s B Corp led values and way of operating.
“We believe that the expansion into retail will enable us to become a better wholesaler to this sector, as we learn more about the intricacies of running the business and gain valuable consumer insight about product preferences and shopping habits.”
