Wholesale

Your go-to wholesaler for organic ethically sourced fruit and veg

Are you searching for a fresh, sustainable source of organic produce? 

Do you value fair pay for farmers and transparent supply chains? 

Keep reading! 

We're not your average wholesalers. We're a non-profit driven by a passion for community and sustainability. We connect small-scale nature-friendly farms with schools, councils, veg box schemes and more. From bustling restaurants to corner shops, we've got your produce needs covered. And with the Soil Association's seal of approval, you know it's the real deal.

Are you a restaurant, cafe or shop owner craving fresh, local produce? Let's chat. Our Hackney grower Sophie and Dagenham grower Alice can supply award-winning salads, greens and more. This hyper-local produce offers a freshness and flavour most supply chains can't touch. We harvest to order, so your produce is picked, packed and delivered within hours, not weeks.

Are you looking to source produce on a larger scale? You need the Better Food Shed. Every week, up to 20 tonnes of fresh, organic goodness flow from our hub in Bow, sourced directly from 23 small and medium organic UK farms, mostly within 70 miles of east London. Check out our explainer to see how we're shaking up wholesale food procurement. Contact the Better Food Shed.

“From salad leaves to strawberries, it’s the best produce we’ve ever been able to find. Grown with the seasons and in real soil, we should all be living off this stuff.”
