About this deal

We have dogs of all ages and experience which will often work for anyone as well as having different sheep in different environments.

Consenting to these technologies will allow us to process data such as browsing behaviour or unique IDs on this site. All products are also currently produced at the farm, and the business’ sustainability credentials go beyond it keeping its carbon footprint to a minimum. As a result, we have lower free sugars, which help prevent kids getting sugar highs and crashes, which we certainly like to avoid with our two at all costs.Charlie Fermor is a fourth-generation, multi-British Farming Awards-winning farmer, and his patented process of preserving the bond between natural sugar and fibre in preparing the products is key to them providing children with the best possible nutrition.

Co-founder and co-director of Freddie’s Farm, Laurie Fermor, takes Grocery Gazette behind the scenes of the prime time show and shares what happened after the cameras stopped rolling.Now the fledgling business has fought off competition from hundreds of other hopefuls to be named Aldi’s Next Big Thing and landed a contract with the national supermarket chain, as televised on the Channel 4 series in November. Then with the pandemic happening just as business was taking off, at one point we thought we’d never get here. A Kent-based manufacturer and retailer of children’s snacks is setting its sights on rapid growth with support from Lloyds Bank after landing a contract with a major national supermarket. With everything grown, dried and packed within metres of the couple’s home, the carbon footprint also appealed to Aldi, which has tough sustainability targets and has been a carbon neutral business since 2019. Freddie’s Farm is based at the Fermor family’s Bramley Mount Farm in Ashford, and produces a range of fruit shapes aimed at toddlers that currently come in three flavours – apple, raspberry and blueberry – but all contain beetroot, carrot, and spinach, and no added sugars.

With the judges following a very rigorous scoring criteria, Laurie – along with her husband and co-founder Charlie – impressed them from the start with the taste of the fruit snacks, eco-friendly paper packaging and health credentials. Multiple Retailer of the Year [1], Aldi, is slashing the cost of its best-selling Costellore Prosecco Spumante DOC (75cl), just in time for Halloween celebrations. Wrapped in paper packaging and using only fresh fruit and veg (never concentrates or purees), the items feature no added sugar and benefit from a special patented process which results in lower ‘free’ sugars than any other kid’s fruit snacks on the market.The healthy confectionery brand offers fruit and veg snacks for kids made with British produce, sourced from the founders’ orchards and fields in Kent. By signing up to receive the Business Leader newsletter you will receive breaking business news, exclusive interviews and original content three times a week to your inbox. Being on the show has hugely increased our visibility on the market, so we’re not complaining at all! If you’ve missed it, Channel 4’s latest reality TV show‘Aldi’s Next Big Thing’ has been championing a wide range of new food and drink brands over recent weeks.

In spring 2021, it became the first UK kids’ snacks company to launch 100% recyclable paper packaging. One of these lucky brands is Freddie’s Farm, which officially hit Aldi shelves earlier this month after being awarded an exclusive contract with the UK’s fourth-largest supermarket and beating hundreds of other competitors.

When Freddie was little, we were looking at the other snacks that were out there and available for kids and they just weren’t good enough,” said Laurie, talking about how the business started.The British fruit and vegetable grower fought off tough competition on the TV programme from manufacturers of fava bean snacks, kimchi and even camel milk.
