Our business specialises in making affordable handmade gourmet food – vinaigrettes, chutneys, jams, sauces and the like. We use good fruit and time tested recipes (just like nana used to make).

The whole process is very labour intensive – we cook in pots over gas rings, hand pour and hand label. Each batch is slightly different because the fruit may be from a different tree or orchard. We don’t use artificial colours or preservatives and keep the products as natural as possible.

About 40% of our business is manufacturing, wholesaling and retailing our two brands – Peplers Fine Foods and Bentwood Barn. The other 60% comes from contract manufacturing for other distributors.
