riverford roots - how it all started

“The foundations of  Riverford were laid in 1951 when my father, an idealistic young farmer, married Gillian, a fantastic cook. Their shared enthusiasm for good food rubbed off on 3 sons and 2 daughters, and in the space of two generations, blossomed into a family enterprise committed to getting produce from farm to kitchen to table by the most direct route.”  Guy Watson, box scheme founder
