About Us
Family-owned since 1992, with 14 generations of cider-making heritage, we operate one of the UK’s largest drinks production sites from our 40-acre facility in Shepton Mallet. Producing over 550 million units annually across six high-tech filling lines (cans, bottles, PET, kegs, and bulk liquid), we blend traditional craft with modern technology to serve major retailers and global brands.
