The Farmer’s Son, producers of award-winning Scottish Black Pudding and Haggis from Fife, have secured a prestigious listing with London’s world-renowned department store, Fortnum & Mason.
Founded in 2017 by Pete Mitchell, The Farmer’s Son draws on more than 300 years of family farming heritage in Scotland to create authentic, high-quality products with full provenance. Their traditional range, including Black Pudding, Haggis, White Pudding and Lorne Sausage, is made with locally sourced ingredients and reflects Scotland’s long-standing reputation for excellence in food and drink.
This new partnership with Fortnum & Mason, – recently ranked the best department store in the world – places The Farmer’s Son alongside some of the finest food producers in the UK, highlighting growing demand for premium, ethically produced Scottish products. Fortnum's has supplied fresh produce to The Royal Household for many years and they received warrants for their services as Grocers and Tea Merchants from Their Majesties The King and Queen.
The Farmer’s Son founder Peter Mitchell said, “I am delighted that Fortnum & Mason have chosen to stock our award-winning products. This is a testament to our hard work and commitment over the years to produce the highest quality products possible. To be included in the foodhall of one of the world’s best department stores, sharing shelf space with a selection of the country's finest handpicked products, is quite an honour for us.”
In a world of fake supermarket farms and contrived brand stories, The Farmer’s Son offers clued up shoppers and retailers truly authentic products from reputable trusted sources. Their all-natural range of Scottish Black Pudding, Haggis, White Pudding and Lorne Sausage are made with high quality, locally grown and produced ingredients from family farms and mills in Scotland free from additives, preservatives and artificial flavourings. They offer real provenance, traceability and the high animal welfare option, in a way the typical mass produced factory made products cannot.
“For us, this partnership working with Fortnums is a milestone and a great achievement. We believe, whether a world renowned department store or small grocery, there is a demand and desire for high quality Scottish & UK made products.Despite all the challenges in today’s world, smaller to medium sized, independent, hardworking family businesses are still relevant and can be the answer to many of our problems.” Pete Mitchell, Founder of The Farmer’s Son.
