Shropshire Spice Co. Ltd

Back in the mid 1970s a group of locals met in the village pub in Clun to think up a new business venture. Their aim was to boost employment for the local area. Because Clun is located in deepest Shropshire, they reasoned it would make sense to launch a business offering light weight products that were ideal for sending through the post. The idea of selling herbs and spices was how The Shropshire Spice Company was born, initially operating from a run-down Victorian Methodist Chapel, employing three local ladies.

Today the owners still retain their commitment to offering high quality speciality products for amateur and professional cooks. The Shropshire Spice Company is today perhaps best know for its range of Gourmet Stuffings. Offering imaginative blends such as Sage, Red Pepper & Shallot as well as family favourites such as Sage & Onion, the stuffings are available in specialist outlets as well as selected supermarkets up and down the country. Since winning the Soil Association certificate the company has also launched a selection of completely organic stuffings.

To add to their range of exclusive products, The Shropshire Spice Company offers a selection of flavoured dips as well as speciality spice blends to be added to drinks such as mulled wine. All are packaged in a dried form so they can be kept as store cupboard ingredients for the unexpected visitor or the occasional luxury.
