About Stonebow

A fair shot at the big shelves, for great British food and drink.

We're a Lincoln-based team working with producers across the UK - and we've spent careers on both the supplier and the retailer buying sides.

Our story

Founded in Lincoln, built on buying-desk experience.

Stonebow was founded on a simple belief: that brilliant British producers shouldn't be locked out of the big shelves just because they don't know how the buying process works. Our name comes from the Stonebow - Lincoln's medieval gateway arch - because that's what we are: your gateway onto the shelf.

Between us we've spent decades as category buyers, national account managers, food technologists and manufacturers. We've sat in the buyer's chair and we've run the production line - so we know exactly what gets a product listed, and what it takes to keep supplying once it is.
