Buy wholesale from a long-standing & ethical worker co-operative


We offer one of the largest ranges of organic, ethical and sustainable products with nearly 5,000 items from numerous brands. Some are household names but many smaller producers are unique to us. Not forgetting our own brand of ethical store cupboard staples and huge retail pack range created right here on-site!

We have a bespoke online ordering system with custom functionalities adaptable to your needs. Placing your order online gives you flexibility, access to the latest prices and promotions, and as orders are available to view, you can save time in re-ordering.
