Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Old Mill Tea Room in Bakewell, Peak District, wanted to upgrade their snack offering from mass-market brands to something that better reflected their commitment to quality, British produce. They decided to stock the Brown Bag Crisps 40g multipack range.
"Our customers noticed the difference straight away. They love that they're getting a proper, tasty crisp that they can't just pick up anywhere. It's a small change that's had a brilliant impact on our counter sales and customer feedback."
Stephen Davies – Owner
The result was a 30% increase in crisp sales within the first two months and a noticeable uplift in positive customer comments about their snack selection.
