- After some storecupboard-stocking tips from the top? Scott Winston, grocery buyer at Selfridges' London flagship store, shares his stocking secrets
1 Salt is a fantastic seller for us, with both our truffle salts (from Truffle Hunter and San Pietro) topping the category sales. Salt House have also brought to market some fantastic products including Black Vava salt and Aguni No Shio. They have some great gifting collections so customers can experiment with some of their different products.
2 A recent edition to our collection is a range from Spice Ways who put together the most amazing seasonings to match pretty much any cuisine or occasion. Finally Las Hermanas Pimenton Sampling kit offers three different takes on Paprika from sweet to bitter sweet and hot which really showing off this diverse spice.
3 I think ‘Pick and Mix’ style offerings and bespoke blending will the next step for this category. Consumers are becoming more sophisticated in the kitchen so I think we’ll start to see more personalised blends to reflect that desire to experiment.
