Growers Garden produces flavoured crisps from locally sourced ‘wonky’ vegetables, diverting surplus produce that would otherwise go to waste. The business is based in Cupar and operates as a collective of 16 farming families in east Scotland. It has secured supermarket listings and is scaling to meet increased retail demand across the UK. The company has obtained £510,000 of funding from HSBC UK to expand operations. Funds will treble storage capacity to hold the half‑million units of stock needed for new supermarket customers and finance modifications to streamline direct supply to shops. Management frames the move as an ambitious growth step focused on reducing food waste and encouraging healthy eating.
