“Today we work with more than 250 local producers and farmers. We like to think of ourselves as a Cornish supermarket (but with the ethics you want) – somewhere you can order your food shopping, and know we provide a service you can rely on.  Our relationships with small growers and makers, as well as well known bigger local brands you love, mean we have a unique and exciting range.”

To have The Cornish Food Box Company (and their sister site, The Fine Food Hamper) on We are The Helpful is so exciting.  From the beginning, Founders, Tor and Lucy, have been an absolute delight and share in the belief of the importance of Helpful Gifting, and the positive impacts it has on the ones we love.  

Together, we have taken the insights that have come from our research, and built a number of fresh food offerings that will truly help our loved ones when life happens.  Like one-handed bites to keep a new Mum fed and nourished during a 2am feed, or a box of beautiful, easy and essential food when they move house.

The highest quality foods from the very best local, Cornish producers, we've created some beautiful, Helpful gifting options for the ones you love when they need it most.  

Enjoy,

Why did you start The Cornish Food Box Company?

We started the Cornish Food Box Company with the very simple aim of making it as easy as possible for people to buy Cornish food and drink. You choose what you want to order, we pack and deliver it to your door – it really is that simple!

Tell us more about The Cornish Food Box Company

We sell food we can feel good about - to us that means grass-fed, free range meat and poultry, sustainably caught fish and seafood, and veg grown just down the road from producers we know. Our food has been grown, reared, caught or made here in Cornwall so it's completely seasonal, and we can tell you exactly where it is from and how it was produced. We have added some produce that isn't grown here in Cornwall but are sourced from local companies so you can do a complete fresh shop with us. This means we are able to supply fruit and salad throughout the year, as well as a greater range of organic veg, fruit and organic dairy year round.

Today we work with more than 250 local producers and farmers. We like to think of ourselves as a Cornish supermarket (but with the ethics you want) – somewhere you can order your food shopping, and know we provide a service you can rely on. We’re never going to be able to compete with the supermarkets on lots of their range, but if you’re looking for quality, fresh, free-range products that come from Cornish farmers & fishermen, fantastic bakers and makers then we can’t be beaten.

Our relationships with small growers and makers, as well as well known bigger local brands you love, mean we have a unique and exciting range. Whether you're looking for a day to day grocery shop, or something more decadent for your holiday or special occasion, we can deliver everything to your door. We’re incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved so far but there’s plenty more to come so watch this space!
