The Langport Stores The Langport stores is a business that’s been going for almost 115 years, located in Langport Somerset which is the heart of the Somerset levels. The store has had many different guises over the years, everything from a mini department store to a general store and these days a specialist food and health store. John and Jason Rice-Lewis have been at the helm for the past eight years, having moved from London for a new more relaxed life in lovely Somerset. Over this time they have transformed the store from a health food shop into a specialist food shop concentrating on a plastic free offering and environmentally friendly products and locally sourced food. They have worked tirelessly to promote the business through a strong online presence and all social media platforms. In 2016 they won the best deli and small food shop in Somerset in the Muddy Stiletto Awards and even had a full page spread in the Daily Telegraph weekend supplement. “It’s certainly been a labour of love” says Jason Rice-Lewis “and it’s fair to say that the pandemic while not without its challenges, has been a success story for us as a local independent business” Langport is full of one of kind businesses and has a real buzz to it, so we are very much looking forward to a bumper Christmas in Store.
