Wholesale Information

Elveden Estate and Farms

Elveden rose to significance as an internationally renowned shooting Estate in the nineteenth Century. His Royal Highness Maharajah Duleep Singh sold the property to Edward Guinness, the 1st Earl of Iveagh, in 1895.
 
From the 1860’s, Elveden’s Best quality game was sold to the smartest London restaurants and department stores, delivered by special courier. From the 1930’s the 2nd Earl made great progress, creating dairy and beef enterprises, utilizing revolutionary agricultural practices.

My father continued this evolution, phasing out much of the stock, and we were to become the largest single UK producer of sugar beet.

Sensing an end to the regulated market in sugar, we moved to produce top quality onions, potatoes, carrots and parsnips.

Striving to be the best of breed in everything we do, has been, and continues to be, our core philosophy, and from this proud tradition, we sincerely hope that you enjoy our carefully selected range of Eastern Counties food and drinks.

Earl of Iveagh
