Bulk Buying

Buy your favourite wholefoods in bulk, for less.
Essential Trading are a fantastic, Bristol-based workers co-operative that supply independent businesses across the UK with organic and fairly traded wholefoods. We buy a lot of the wholefoods in the Tamar Valley Food Hubs shop from the co-operative, and you can also buy from them in bulk through the shop too.
Essential Trading update their catalogue every two months, so keep an eye out for new additions to the range and their latest promotions too.
