Bespoke Service

Kitchen 1, California 

We were contacted by Martyn Baker who runs the Baker Family Trust in California (and also happens to be a passionate chef) to brand, design and print a new logo for white chef’s aprons. Working together and alongside the incredible students of Derwen College we enjoyed every minute of the process.

 “I travel extensively and I’m always looking for unique gifts that represent both my values and passion for the culinary arts. Working with Sue and her network of genuine artisans, you know you are going to get a product that will far exceed your expectations.”

St. Michael’s Church, Wandsworth Common

Lockdown provided new opportunities to show kindness and St. Michael’s Church, Wandsworth Common, rose to the occasion.  It was lovely to collaborate with them on their “Lockdown Blessings” project, fulfilling and delivering beautiful surprise gifts within the community.

“When we wanted to say thank you to the partners we work with in our community, and to encourage them in a tough season we immediately thought of Promise in Store. Their hampers are beautiful. Everything is carefully chosen and individually wrapped. More than that, Promise in Store know and care for their suppliers and ensure that all the people they work with are treated with dignity, care and respect. I cannot recommend Promise in Store highly enough.”

Blakes London

We were asked by Blakes London, a specialist kitchen and joinery design studio, to provide some bespoke black and white pottery for their staff and customers. Working with Blakes London, and in collaboration with Camphill Village Trust, we established the best design and style, and we were thrilled with the results.

Blakes London says:

“The ethos of what Promise in Store is trying to achieve has resonated powerfully with the team at Blakes London and we felt humbled to have been able to support that in this small way. The pottery that the students at Camphill Village Trust created is special to us, not only because of the incredible people who created it, but also because it looks beautiful and is so on brand. We are absolutely delighted with the outcome and have already had so many people commenting on how lovely it is. Thank you so much Promise in Store and Camphill Village Trust!”

 

Parish Coffee, London

We were thrilled to source and supply all of the cups and plates for a new London cafe, Parish Coffee in Balham. Working in collaboration with Parish Coffee and Camphill Village Trust we were able to ensure all the cafe’s needs were met and the pottery was made and delivered ahead of the grand opening.

Please go and visit to see all that has been achieved and enjoy a lovely cup of coffee!

Laura, Parish Coffee manager, says:

“We love the story behind all our cups, mugs and plates and our customers love using them! We are so thankful for the time that Sue spent with us to decide what would be best for Parish Coffee. Excellent service and would totally recommend!”

Parish Refill, London 

Parish Refill, based in South West London, is a zero waste refill station. They supply eco friendly personal and household cleaning products which customers can purchase in their own containers.

We were contacted by Karen from Parish Refill to provide some branded calico bags for an ‘Earth Matters’ event they were attending.  Working with the talented Harry and Caitlin from Derwen College all the bags were hand printed beautifully and arrived on time.

Karen says:

 “It was an absolute pleasure working with Sue from Promise In Store to have these beautiful calico tote bags printed for our Refill Station. The process was simple, and we think the results speak for themselves. I couldn’t recommend Promise In Store more highly!”
