ABOUT THE PRODUCER

Opies was founded in England in 1880 by Bennett Opie, a Cornish miner who travelled to London and set up a company supplying Cornish eggs to London markets. Over the years they expanded into glace cherries and then into an ever increasing range of pickles and preserves. In 1929 they moved into a new factory in Sittingbourne in Kent where they developed world-class pickling technologies and became know as the ‘Pickle People’ to the locals. And today they are still manufacturing British pickles and preserves from the same site.  Opies take great pride in the quality of their products. All their ingredients are carefully sourced and selected, and rigorous production processes are continually monitored.
