January Update
I had to sit for a while and ponder where to start really. So much going on, so much has changed, yet equally, so much seems just the same. Does that make sense? Firstly, a massive THANKYOU to our customers in 2020 - both for your orders, and your patience too! At times, we were almost overwhelmed … [Read more...] about January Update
Easter Opening Hours 2020

So much of life is different right now, but we're still open to serve our customers as best we can. :) Easter means that we are closed for a little longer than a normal weekend, so it's worth taking note of our … [Read more...] about Easter Opening Hours 2020
Size Guide
I guess it's easy for us to gauge the size of our Food Packaging and Glasses as we are surrounded by them all day, and know them inside out.

We're 12 games into the 2019/20 Premier League season, and while every club is hopeful of a decent cup run on the pitch and some silverware in May, it's good to see that the big teams are also starting to flex their green credentials too.

Eco-friendly sauce pot?
I'll be honest, I couldn't hide my glee when these samples arrived in the post. What are they? Biodegradable Bagasse Deli pots and matching lids. (Honestly, it doesn't take much to make me happy these days) We're giving these pots some serious thought, as it ticks more than 1 box and we've been … [Read more...] about Eco-friendly sauce pot?
