The quality of the fish that ChalkStream® produce in Hampshire’s gin clear river water is known as “Pure Athletic Trout”.

Their pizza is made from slow-rising dough and is baked in a wood-burning brick oven. Their oven produces a heat of about 500 °c (930 °F ).

As a result, the edge (cornicione) is excellent and shouldn’t be discarded.

Nothing added. Nothing taken away.

Amanda Thomson is the CEO and Founder of Thomson & Scott and creator of an entirely new sector in the wine industry – sparkling wine that cuts unnecessary sugar, is organic and vegan certified and above all is transparent about what’s in the bottle – an idea the wine industry is only just beginning to wake up to.

Having been brought up on a vegetarian, no sugar diet by her health conscious single mother, she has always had a keen interest in healthy living. After a successful career as an Arts Broadcaster at the BBC, she moved to Paris and studied for her Diploma in Wine at the renowned Le Cordon Bleu School.

She created Skinny Champagne – a world first – and then launched another – Skinny Prosecco – that has become a by-word in the media for drinking better. Noughty is the first organic, vegan alcohol-free sparkling wine to drastically cut unnecessary sugar from the production process.

Cabin Pressure Spirits are a husband and wife team based in Horsham, West Sussex. Thinking there must be a way to produce a more flavoursome gin, David set about experimenting in the garden shed. A year later, it turned out he was right! The couple rapidly up-scaled production and are busy sharing the results with gin lovers across the region.

Traditionally, gin is made by boiling a mixture of alcohol and botanical ingredients at high temperature. The botanical-infused vapour is then condensed back to its liquid form and bottled as gin. Convinced there was a way to improve their favourite tipple by avoiding violent boiling of the ingredients, Cabin Pressure borrowed an approach from the science lab to produce gin at a much lower temperature. The result is an exceptionally smooth spirit with a superb depth of flavour.

The Salcombe Distillery is a distillery, bar, gin school and shop, located in the beautiful coastal town of Salcombe, Devon.

The Aluna Coconut Rum was conceived over a beach bbq, gazing out to sea as the moon, the big coconut in the sky, rose over the waves.  A conversation between three friends who all loved coconut when it was fresh, natural and delicious and appreciated great rum, but couldn’t find a coconut rum that wasn’t sweet and synthetic. They are now a renowned award-winning company and are regulars at The Rare Brand Market events.

Growing up on a farm in Scotland, Rubies founder, Jenny, learnt to be resourceful & creative with food.

After moving to London and starting a job in Finance, Jenny began reading about the problem of food waste. Shocked by the amount of fruit and veg that is rejected because it doesn’t look perfect, she began rescuing produce from New Covent Garden market and experimenting in the kitchen with childhood recipes.

In 2012, she decided to take the idea from side hustle to centre stage. Fast-forward eight years and Rubies in the Rubble is one of the pioneering voices in food sustainability, with an award-winning range of ketchups, mayos and relishes, stocked nationwide.

The inspiration behind Love Cocoa comes from founder James Cadbury’s, great-great-great grandfather John Cadbury, who set up Cadbury chocolate nearly 200 years ago. The philanthropist built Cadbury on great ethical grounds, looking after its workforce and improving civil rights. With the family no longer involved, the business was subject to a hostile takeover in 2010 being sold to a US company. . .
Cadbury becomes part of Mondelēz International after a hostile takeover and controversy. The much loved British firm is now in hands of the American owners who make a number of promise including that to keep open British factories.
Within weeks of the takeover going through, Kraft announced it was going to close the Somerdale factory. Four hundred jobs were lost.
Love Cocoa is launched in July 2016, built on the strong ethical foundations that Cadbury initially espoused.

The Ethical Butcher are on a mission to reconnect people with nature. They believe that as a society we have become far too disconnected from our food and the land it comes from. Everything they are about ties together, naturally. The way their farmers manage their animals affects the flavour of the meat they produce as well as their impact on the environment. It’s not just about eating good food it’s about knowing where it comes from and how your choices impact both people and planet.

The Ethical Butcher was started because they wanted to create change. It might sound cliché but they know that the industry needed a shift and that they could ‘be the change’. The founders, Farshad who has been in the meat industry for over 15 years and Glen who is an ex vegetarian, believe passionately in righting an industry that has gone so far wrong.
