Born in the Lake District and inspired by the area’s Herdwick sheep, Herdy was set up in 2007 with just 3 products. The Herdyfund was established at the same time, with the aim of contributing a percentage of company profi ts to support rural communities and the lovable Herdwick sheep themselves.

Within a few years, Herdy had grown and won a business award. Today, in addition to supplying independent retailers the length and breadth of the UK, they have 4 of their own shops in the Lake District National Park and are known internationally in countries including Japan, Australia, Denmark,
