The Krumb

In order to ensure our wholesale bakery range is always ahead of the game, we invest in research and insight into the food and drink industry. We take the time to identify the latest product and eating out trends, looking at the latest cuisine mega trends, changes in dietary behaviours and more, to ensure our products are diverse. What’s more, this approach ensures that our customers have access to the highest quality foods that their own customers demand. We break these trends down to create The Krumb; your mini pocket guide exploring growing trends and channels in the foodservice industry.
