Our Story
Since 1974, Staple Food Group have been delivering goods and services of the highest quality to the UK food industry.
In the Beginning
In 1974 Derek Robbins founded Staple Dairy Products Limited located in Chiselhurst, Kent, trading in commodity butter and cheese. Since then Staple Dairy products became established in the dairy market, delivering goods to foodservice and manufacturing.
Staple Dairy Products Limited’s expertise in the UK food industry continued to grow as we became major importers of aerosol cream and fractionated anhydrous butters. To this day we are still experts in delivering aerosol cream to the UK food industry.
Focusing on the Future
We’ve grown since 1974. Today, Staple Food Group is a trading division of Staple Dairy Products Limited and based in Orpington, Kent.
Our range of expertise covers foodservice, manufacturing, retail and wholesale sectors. SFG’s product portfolio includes in-house brands Cuisine and Kouzina, as well as introducing new brands into the UK market using our wealth of industry knowledge.
We work closely with customers to achieve the best possible results for their applications.
