Research shows shoppers value food with provenance, greater still from
locations with fame
13
Shoppers seek provenance of the food they are eating. From Sainsbury’s named suppliers to food miles credits
Scratch cooking has become the norm, no longer a foodie trend but the reality of post recession behaviours
Totem products. Shoppers treat themselves with purchases that can be eulogized about later
Summary of findings from; Mintel, TNS, Trendwatching

Who are we?20
Husband and wife team, Annie and Philip Slade we have spent over 20 years together. Indulging our passion for tracking down amazing food, whether cooking at home or eating out.
!Both believe life is way too short to put up
with mediocrity Since November last year, we have started a quest to track down, speak to and document the best of London’s food producers. Active across a whole host of social media platforms under the banner ‘Food from London’
!Both ex advertising creative directors. One now consultant strategic
planner the other teaching art and crafts to young children. Confirmed Londonites for over 30 years we were both lucky enough
to have volunteer roles both before and during the Olympics Games. This project is our contribution to the 2012 legacy
