At Produced in Kent, we are dedicated to raising the profile of everything produced in this County in a way that’s good for the world around us, and good for our well being.

If you grow local produce, serve it in your restaurant or sell it in your shop we want you to shout about it.

As a consumer make sure you ask about the products you buy. A good butcher will know the source of his meat. A stallholder at a Farmers Market can tell you where the produce was grown or how it was made. Quality pubs and restaurants will tell you about their suppliers and the traceability of your food.

Kent has long been regarded as the Garden of England, and through extensive diversification and innovation it means there is so much to offer the consumer. We want people living and working in this county to understand that if it comes from Kent - it means quality.

The Produced in Kent team are dedicated to promoting the very best Kent has to offer. When you buy locally produced goods you are:

•Getting fresher, healthier produce

•Reducing food miles

•Contributing to the local economy (£10 spent with a local producer is worth £25 to the local area compared to just £14 when spent in the supermarket)

•Better value for money

•Creating less packaging and waste

•Protecting the rural landscape of Kent

Produced in Kent is a not for profit organisation funded by KCC and SEEDA, and we want to work closely with local producers, manufacturers and businesses that share our passion. Find out just how beneficial membership of Produced in Kent will be for you in our Membership Section, or Apply Now.
