My Story

Our Story Title Authentically Welsh was an idea hatched & finally sealed on St David’s Day, 1st March 2010, when Visitors to Hay-on-Wye holiday cottage, asked me to receive their food shop. Eventually a van turned up and twenty-one carrier bags later the kitchen was awash with plastic packaging – to my surprise it wasn’t the local supermarket but a major one twenty odd miles away! Past experience of traffic hold-ups and arriving late had meant an empty fridge until morning! Not ideal for any Visitor. The seed had been sown. Authentically Welsh grew. Akin to the Welsh countryside, I want to grow and blossom the business and to do this I need your support and feedback. New foods are being introduced and trialed  at food fayres all the time.  So if they go down a storm they are introduced online so you the customer gets the sourcing done for you.  However, if you want something that is not currently online then let me know and I will do my utmost to source it. I bring you local foods at the highest quality sourced in the Brecon Beacons made by award winning artisan producers or for certain products I have to travel slightly further afield across Wales to find you the best. I take pride in only selling products, which have been grown, made or manufactured in Wales. Hence fresher foods as less travelled ‘food’ miles and reduced carbon footprint. I am committed to enhancing your experience to Wales and sustainable tourism in the Brecon Beacon and across Wales so feast your eyes on the tasty Welsh foods, forget about carrier bags and let the your fridge be filled ready for your arrival. Let me do the work so you can enjoy your holiday. Delivering a taste of Wales to your fridge…
