After investment discussions and a new business plan Earth and Water have announced that they will be producing a range of own brand Earth and Water Organic preserves and chutneys, this is an exciting move for the company as we move into new territory. We are excited about building the wholesale side of the business and comfortable that the product will be very well received.

Earth and Water website

The Earth and Water website development is moving forward. We are looking for equipment that will help to create a leading site in our field, I am really confident that it is going to make a real name for itself in the food market. Clever marketing and networking is going to be key in developing the Earth and Water brand into a household name.We are aiming for February of next year to launch the site properly I will keep you all posted on the progress.

Earth and Water Organic Ale

At Earth and Water We have been producing our Organic ale for nearly six months and it has been a fantastic success. We currently only offer 2 different Organic ales. Organic Pale Ale which is a light ale with a hint of ginger and an Organic dark ale which has a rich chocolate palette. We currently only stock them in the only Earth and Water outlet in Penryn Cornwall, however the sales have been somewhat amazing compared to total sale of ales in the store, out selling the larger brands like skinners brewery and Sharpers brewery who are both well know Cornish brewers.

Earth and water Hampers

Just sold our first hamper of the Christmas season. Always a real pleasure to make up hampers. It feels like you are really giving a present that has had lots of thought and love put into it, I feel this is also very clear for the person who is receiving the gift. Hampers are a very thoughtful gift to give to somebody.

Business In General

Well the Business has been going pretty well considering it is tough times for all. I have been very absent for the past 10 months due to changes at work, and trying to bring up a small family. The shop has been going for nearly 2 years and it does get easier. Got some great products of our own and the Website is much closer to being finished. The next big decision is how to expand, the coffee industry is obviously recession proof, and this article I found the other day is very encouraging. The Uk has the largest number of Coffee shop in europe and they are soon to rise!!! maybe a section of our shop could stand alone in another town, adding number 2 to the business..3 if you include the website.

Back Again

Seems I have not been here for a While, running a business and working full time is tough to say the least. I have decided that what is needed is a business partner, so that is what I am in the process of doing. World watch out for Earth and Water.
