Bespoke vehicle for Britain’s oldest farm shop
We were delighted to help renowned family business, Hinchliffe’s Farm Shop in Honley, West Yorkshire, with a vehicle for their farm shop deliveries.
The VW Crafter Commerce TDI has been converted to provide refrigeration and wrapped with a distinctive image that reflects Hinchliffe’s heritage and branding.
At almost 100 years old, Hinchliffe’s was established in 1929 by Allen Hinchliffe, who started out with a farm at Pole Moor. Allen and his wife Betsy would deliver eggs by horse and cart, later opening a butchers shop in Huddersfield. In 1974 Britain’s first ever farm shop was opened and since then it’s award-winning top quality meat, sausages and pork pies have continued to draw customers from across the area.
The new vehicle is on a long-term lease and will help support the farm’s wholesale customers with deliveries to shops, restaurants, pubs, cafes and home delivery service to our retail customers homes – keeping produce from the shop and butchers in tip top condition.
