Wholesale fruit and veg for City of London kitchens

Hand-picked at New Covent Garden Market and driven across the river to the Square Mile before the weekday lunch rush. Family-run since 2007.

Market-fresh produce for a zero-storage City kitchen

City kitchens run on borrowed space. Behind a Leadenhall Market restaurant or a Bishopsgate dining room there is rarely a walk-in or a dry store worth the name — just a tight prep line feeding a compressed weekday lunch rush. So the produce has to arrive that morning, ready to go, not sit as warehouse stock for three days.

That is exactly how we work. Giuseppe is on the stands at New Covent Garden Market from around half past midnight, picking by hand. It is a short cross-river run from our SW8 base to the EC districts, so the aubergines and heritage tomatoes landing at your Cheapside or Fenchurch Street kitchen were on the market stand a few hours earlier.

We deliver across the Square Mile six mornings a week — EC1 through EC4, from Bank and Cornhill to St Paul's, Moorgate, Aldgate and Tower Hill — plus the City fringe at Spitalfields, Shoreditch, Farringdon, Clerkenwell, the Barbican, Holborn and over the bridge to Borough and Bankside.

Who we deliver to across the Square Mile

City restaurants and gastropubs

Financial-district dining rooms, traditional taverns and gastropubs around Leadenhall Market, Gracechurch Street and Broadgate — market-fresh fruit, veg, leaves and herbs picked for flavour and dropped before the lunch service.

Members' clubs and private dining

Members' clubs, private dining rooms and hotel dining near Bank and the Royal Exchange, where a menu can change with the booking sheet. Order by midnight and we adjust the pick that morning.

Wine bars, delis and breakfast operators

Wine bars, delis and coffee-and-breakfast kitchens on the commuter trade around Liverpool Street and One New Change — fruit, dairy and dry provisions in one early drop instead of three separate accounts.

Why City kitchens work with us

  • You get a fixed early-morning slot that lands before the Square Mile clogs up. Our vans roll out of the market by three, so your delivery is in before the weekday congestion and the daytime loading-bay windows tighten. Our drivers know the City's service entrances and access restrictions.

  • You deal with two founders, not a call centre. Giuseppe buys every fresh line at the market himself and Jaime checks every order before it leaves the warehouse. If a line is short, substituted or moving on price, we call you before it becomes your problem.

  • And it is one supplier for the whole kitchen — fruit and veg, dairy and chilled, dry goods and provisions, frozen — on one van and one invoice. If it's not on the list, ask and we'll source it.

City of London delivery questions

Which City of London postcodes do you cover?

We deliver right across EC1 to EC4 — Bank, Cheapside and St Paul's in the west through Moorgate, Leadenhall and Fenchurch Street to Aldgate and Tower Hill. We also cover the City fringe: Spitalfields, Shoreditch, Farringdon, Clerkenwell, the Barbican, Holborn, and Borough and Bankside across the river.

Can you deliver before the weekday lunch service?

Yes. Our vans leave New Covent Garden Market by around three in the morning, so a Square Mile kitchen gets its produce, dairy and dry goods before the team starts pre-lunch prep — not mid-afternoon when service is already underway.

Do you handle City loading-bay and access restrictions?

Our drivers run the EC districts every morning and know the service entrances, loading-bay windows and access rules across the Square Mile. Delivering early keeps us ahead of the daytime congestion the City is known for.

Can one delivery cover produce, dairy and dry stores?

Yes. Fruit and veg, dairy and chilled, dry provisions and frozen all arrive together on one van with one invoice — useful in a City kitchen with almost no storage, where juggling separate suppliers wastes space and time.
