The Open Doors Programme Sustainable Supplier Spotlight: Wildfarmed

One year ago, Bidfood revealed its first group of listed suppliers on the path to acceleration through its SME scheme, the Open Doors Programme.  

As one of the leading foodservice providers, Bidfood understands its role in the food ecosystem and recognises the importance of fostering innovation and supporting emerging businesses within the industry. 

Through the Open Doors Programme, Bidfood has provided its customers with first-hand access to the most innovative, nutritious and sustainable products to align with their needs and values. 

While 58% of consumers find it appealing for menus to include information about regenerative practices[1], and almost a third of consumers know what regenerative and vertical farming practices are, half are still unsure and 22% don’t know about them[2]. With that in mind, Bidfood is shining a light on one of its Open Doors suppliers using this climate-friendly farming practice: Wildfarmed. 

Who are Wildfarmed?

Wildfarmed is one of the leading voices in the move towards regenerative agriculture in the UK, producing scrumptious, healthy regenerative flour and baked goods. It’s Wildfarmed’s mission to transform landscapes into thriving fields full of life by repairing the land, improving food security and creating delicious, life-changing food.  

Why do we love Wildfarmed?

1. Positive environmental impact – Wildfarmed farmers grow Wildfarmed wheat in a way that restores nature and soil health, bringing back birds, bugs and bees to create thriving fields.  
2. Reduced carbon – The reduction of chemical inputs, plus Wildfarmed’s biology-based cropping technique, means Wildfarmed regenerative flour produces less carbon than conventional wheat
3. Great tasting food starts with great farming - Because their growers prioritise nature and soil health, Wildfarmed flour is richer, deeper and naturally delicious.
4. Supports local farmers – When you choose Wildfarmed, you’re part of something bigger – a community of farmers who are supported to grow food with nature
