Here at The Rum Fox, seasonality and quality are at the heart of everything we do and Ribble Farm plays a key role in making that possible. Their commitment to sourcing the freshest, in season produce ensures our menus stay vibrant and in tune with the time of year. Beyond the produce itself, their team offers incredible support, from suggesting ingredient alternatives to keeping us informed on what’s coming into season. They’re more than just a supplier they’re a trusted partner in helping us deliver exceptional dishes to our guests.
BOB GELDEARD, CHEF-PATRON
The Rum Fox, Grindleton
As a Michelin-starred restaurant, we rely on suppliers who share our uncompromising standards for quality and freshness and Ribble Farm never disappoints. Their produce is exceptional, consistently delivered in perfect condition, and always bursting with flavour. We particularly value their weekly Paris and Milan market orders, which bring unique, world-class ingredients straight to our kitchen, alongside seasonal treasures sourced by the foragers they work with here in the UK. The service is personal, efficient, and tailored to our needs, making them an invaluable part of our kitchen’s success.

Working with Ribble Farm has been a genuinely positive experience from day 1. Both James and Andy make the entire process seamless. As a chef within a large organisation, it’s essential to have people who can talk on your level and that’s exactly what we get. It removes a huge amount of operational pressure. Ribble Farm is a true family-run organisation, and that culture is evident in everything they do. Their values ripple through the entire business, making them a supplier we trust and genuinely enjoy working with.
