Farm Shop Joins Cyberspace

  • Determined to benefit from modern retail methods, a shop at Sacombe Hill Farm near Watton-at-Stone has launched a new-look website, which offers deals, recipes and news. A loyalty card giving customers up to ten percent off farm shop purchases in excess of £100 is also being advertised.

“In an era where the internet is vital to the success of a business, we decided to up our level of online marketing as well as offer latest offers for our loyal customer base,” says Bridget Borlase, who runs Bridget B’s Traditional Meats with partner James Hale.

“We’re particularly excited about the new site. It’s bright, vibrant and has already received many positive comments from some of our regular customers as well as some of our suppliers,” she adds. Visitors to the website can also read about everything that’s happening on the farm in Bridget’s monthly farm diary, as well as link through to the farm’s own pedigree cattle website.

The shop supplies home produced and locally sourced beef, lamb, pork, poultry, game, vegetables, fruit and bread.
