Marketing Executive Grace recently popped into Laura's Larder, a team favourite artisan food store and delicatessen founded by Speciality & Fine Food Fair Ambassador Laura Roberts, and winner of Independent Retailer of the Year at the Speciality & Fine Food Fair Awards 2022!🏆

It was great to see the shelves packed with everything from indulgent cheeses to freshly baked goods, as well as some familiar products from previous exhibitors.

Of course, the visit called for a little taste testing, and it’s safe to say the freshly packed pastrami sandwich tasted every bit as good as it looks! 🥪✨
