(1) About us
Larder Bytes Ltd is a virtual organisation that manages numerous local food supply chains from producer to end customer, providing a technology service to our members. We have over 15 years experience in developing supply chain technology and have spent the last 3 years building a system to facilitate the distribution of local food. Larder Bytes is the catalyst for local food producers and distributors that together form a national food network, incorporating a number of smaller regional networks within a single structure. It is our aim to deliver products into homes and businesses in an effective and efficient manner supporting our network of local producers. Larder Bytes provides the overarching systems that create and manage the food supply chains. Much of the Larder Bytes network is focused on providing solutions to ethical issues surrounding the production, distribution and consumption of food.

- Improve the quality of food that is available to consumers, by supporting local food producers and by reducing the time food spends in transit.
- Help support local businesses by retaining the value of good sold in the local community, building confidence and sustainability.
- Reducing the harm food supply chains do to the environment by reducing food miles, food and packaging waste as well as GHG emissions.
- Support efforts to improve the nation's health through a program of education as well as providing a greater variety and better availability of high quality local food.
