FROM SEED TO BOTTLE
For malting barley, we can offer traceability from seed to bottle through our malting division Simpsons Malt. We supply seed and other farm inputs, purchase the barley and store it post-harvest, before it goes through the malting process and on to end users in the distilling, brewing and food industries.
PART OF THE B CORP FAMILY
In November 2021, we were the first agricultural merchanting business in the UK to become a Certified B Corporation, joining a growing group of for-profit companies becoming a 'force for good' and committed to prioritising the environment and society in the way they do business.
