Our story

In April 2020, Alex, Pete and Will started supplying their local villages with fresh produce when supermarket deliveries couldn't reach 'the sticks' and farm shops were at capacity. After receiving more and more requests from further afield, The Cotswold Veg Box Company (CVB) was born. Delivering to smiling faces on doorstops was the highlight of our week during lockdown and our customers quickly became our 'CVB family' creating an overwhelming sense of community.

From 40 boxes a week to over 500 bespoke Christmas boxes, CVB delivered 10,000 orders in its first year and we now deliver across four counties with a growing team of staff. We have also started our Pay-it-Forward scheme to help tackle food poverty in our area, using the kind donations from our wonderful customers to provide fresh fruit and veg for people who have found themselves in difficult circumstances.

Working with small, local suppliers

By using small, local suppliers, we are able to buy things like cherry tomatoes and sugar snaps in bulk and re-pack into paper bags, larger items like cauliflowers and cabbages are delivered in crates, usually by tractor from a farm half a mile away... and we've even convinced some of our suppliers to use compostable packaging!

We send any leftover food to local food banks and any food that hasn't meet our high quality standards is sent to a local farmer to feed his animals. All of our waste is recycled, we make sure none goes to landfill. So if you're wanting to reduce your food miles, your plastic and food waste, A box from us at CVB is a great start.
