Gigantic 'pots' of Honey. Please read update


Recommended Posts

For the really serious honey obsessive, normal people can look away now.


My ED bees have been relocated to Cornwall where they forage wild flower honey. The 2015 harvest of raw honey is in 50-60lb tubs where it has now naturally set as all honey does eventually. It can be warmed gently and will become liquid again, but as is, if anyone out there has a worrying honey habit they could buy a whole tub at ?3.50 a lb.

Perhaps a Honey Addicts Anonymous group would like to share??


UPDATE

Well thanks ED for such a positive response, but then it is straight from the hive good stuff.

Now the deal here is whilst happily taking on board the time expense and near death experience of anaphylactic hospitalization, for the avoidance of warming, jars, labels and stickyness, I am selling a complete tub at the wholesale price of ?3.50 lb.

The honey has set and until gently warmed will not pour into a jar but if anybody out there wants to organise a share out, I'm sure you will all be really pleased.


Later in the year I will sell 2016 liquid honey in lb jars for ?6 if the bees are willing and anyone is interested


UPDATE 10th May

To avoid further confusion, oneearth121, who has posted on this thread, has bought a tub of honey and has been willing to share so you all need to contact him for just a few pots.Enjoy!

    • I’m not sure home delivery will replace physical supermarkets. I got the impression that they’re generally loss- making for the retailers and they’d much prefer to encourage customers back to the shops. I read somewhere that the typical Ocado order was around £100 but costs Ocado £120 to fulfill. It works for M&S because they have roped Ocado into a contract where Ocado carry the bulk of the loss.
    • Ocado stopped sourcing from Waitrose a few years ago. They now source from M&S and general brands. Waitrose have their own delivery service now. I don't know how well served SE22 is by it. Ocado offers for new customers are, or certainly were, really good, particularly in the run up to Christmas. I think I got 20%/15%/10% up to a maximum of £100 spend off my first three deliveries with no delivery charge or commitment to sign up for further deliveries. There wasn't a time limit, IIRC, so it was a great way of restocking heavy store cupboard basics and stuff for the freezer.
    • Fair enough point, but does that not in a way make it even worse if they open a shop almost directly  opposite another "family" business selling exactly the same type of products?
    • As Occado source from Waitrose, and were their only deliverer at one stage, and as Waitrose do now deliver it may be they feel their reach in ED is sufficient to mean having a local outlet would not gain them sufficient additional sales to be cost effective. The movement to delivery rather than physical shopping during Covid has I believe substantially changed the grocery economics. So it may be that the High Street dynamic for physical shops has now changed.
