We hold a grade A (the highest standard!) for the British Retail Consortium audit, which is a global food safety standard.
This is a comprehensive once yearly audit that asseses all aspects of the business, from hygiene and staff training to product safety. Having the accreditation allows us to tender for certain
contracts, especially those within the public sector.
The audit is split into 6 sections - HACCP, Quality Management System, Factory Environmental Standards, Product Control, Process Control and Personnel.

Last year we were proud to be among 2 other finalists in the national competetion
for the title of Craft Business of the Year 2005. This is an award given to forward thinking businesses which demonstrate innovation and business accumen. We didn't win
(though there's always next year) but we did have fun putting on our best frocks and dancing the night away at the glitzy Grosvenor Hotel in London. To read an article printed in the
Bristol Evening Post about the event visit the

section of the site and look at the 'In the Papers' section.
