About Global Exotics
Our past and our vision.
In 2007 Global Exotics believed they had identified a gap in the market for the organised supply of exotic organic produce to ethnic communities. In addition to that, there was a growth in demand for exotics with the broadcasting of exotic travel food shows which created extra demand. In 2008 we started to build a retail supply service, with a simple doctrine, the best produce, the best service. It is a mantra that saw us grow from offering a wide range of exotics to small retail outlets and then the larger independent ethnic retailers. All this growth has been created by the reputation we built through the recommendation of our clients.
By 2011 Global Exotics had built a country wide retail customer base for our exotics.
Our reputation had also spread to the wholesale markets with requests to supply. We made the decision to move our focus to the wholesale market.
The 2014/16 “Exotic Growth” programme we operate with our “partner” producers
is looking to identify the exotics we supply or are looking to supply that travel the furthest to our shores, those that have the largest environmental impact, to establish if they can be grown closer to our shores and then integrated into our existing transport logistics.
With our active “exotic growth” research we will look to bring production of exotics closer to European shores to reduce transport impact and control growing conditions. Who would of thought you could grow wine grapes in Wales thirty years ago!
