Haughton Honey near Nantwich wins first major supermarket listing

Cheshire premium honey brand Haughton Honey has won a place on the shelves of national supermarket chain Morrisons.

It is the first major supermarket deal secured by the company based near Nantwich.

Haughton Honey produces pure, raw honey and has a large nationwide mail order and wholesale business.

Both Haughton Honey’s wildflower honey and Haughton Honey’s heather honey have been selected by Morrisons to initially sell across 48 stores in the North West.

Haughton Honey founder Crispin Reeves said: “Having been operating for six years, this listing with Morrisons marks the next stage in the growth of the business.

“I am delighted that we have secured a place on the shelves of our first major supermarket chain.

“Demand for British honey is growing in the UK and Haughton Honey has been going from strength to strength, building up a large, loyal customer base of consumers across the UK who enjoy our delicious products.

“The English wildflower honey is our flagship product, and the heather honey is an alternative, richly-flavoured honey that is known as the ‘Champagne of honey’ and is extremely popular.

“We are very pleased that Morrisons is welcoming these fantastic honeys onto its shelves.”

The honey will be on sale in Morrisons in 340g jars from early July.

In February, the brand launched a new medicinal strength CBD honey.

It contains high quality CBD (a chemical in the cannabis sativa plant used to treat many health issues) is grown in Britain by their partner company, Sativa Group Plc, under tightly controlled conditions.

It is one of the first British food products to contain the health and wellness additive.

It has proved to be very popular with orders coming in from across the UK and Europe.
