Our Account Manager, Chloe Veg Supplier has had the pleasure of working alongside Chef Ben for many years. His passion for exceptional produce is evident in everything he does, with a strong commitment to quality, provenance, and sourcing. As a supplier, our growers’ passion is carried through to us, then brought to life by the chef and reflected on every plate served to their customers. And this is why we at Smith and Brock work so well with Ben and his team at Langan’s Brasserie.

We’ve developed a trusted partnership and a genuine friendship with Ben and his team, built on mutual respect and shared values. It’s always a pleasure to work with Langan’s, and we’re proud to support such dedicated and passionate chefs who care deeply about the quality of what they do.

Said to be the queen of plums, the mirabelle is exquisitely sweet and juicy. At the time of writing, we had seen the first two arrivals and they were slightly green but clearly getting more colour. We anticipate next week seeing fruit with yellow skins, hopefully with some blush, and the great, sweet taste from nature’s little ‘bonbons’.

Greenish flesh, juicy, very sweet with a hint of cinnamon, this is the plum used to make the famous Agen Prune. Fresh, they have a good taste that has a hint of the prune flavour they will become. They are much like a British Victoria but meatier somehow. They hardly appeared on the market a few years ago but now they should be around for up to 6 weeks.

Seasonal update 🌟
It’s great to have some lovely weather, but that intense heat last week has brought its fair share of challenges! Across Europe, soaring temperatures have affected crops, and sadly some of our growers have suffered losses.

🍇Italian white grapes in stock and we received the first arrival of black seedless Italian grape last night. The first Prima black grape has been spotted in Rungis and Muscat should start soon.

🍓The Kent berry season continues with daily collections from Hugh Lowe for strawberries and blackberries, and outstanding Roughway Farm raspberries and cherries. Gooseberries are also now in stock.

🍑Stone fruit is now at its peak, with majority coming from Eyragues, Provence. We have an excellent range of yellow and white peaches, the first blood peaches, yellow and white nectarines, and apricots. We will be switching to some amazing new season French plums imminently. The first greengages have also been spotted in Rungis.

🍈Melons are looking excellent. We have superb watermelon, cantaloupe and Honeymoon melons from Lorenzini, alongside good Spanish honeydew and, of course, beautiful French Charentais.

🫛The UK runner bean season has begun, while peas and broad beans continue to eat beautifully. Yellow beans from France and the first coco beans are now arriving, while Italian borlotti beans are also looking fabulous. Courgettes are also looking particularly good, with excellent Provence green, yellow and round varieties, alongside superb Romana and Trombetta from Italy.

🍄🌿We continue to have Girolles in stock. Plenty of forages in peak season including Sea Aster and Sea Purslane.

𝐇𝐢 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞,
It’s a special week for all of us at Smith & Brock as we celebrate our 𝟏𝟎𝐭𝐡 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐝𝐚𝐲.

When we started back in 2016, we had a small team, a couple of vans, and one clear goal: to supply the very best fresh produce with the service to match. Ten years later, we’re still driven by that same commitment.

To every customer who has trusted us, placed an order, recommended us, and supported our growth over the last decade—thank you. You’ve played a huge part in our journey, and it’s something we never take for granted.
We’ve grown in ways we could only have dreamed of when we first started, but we’ve never lost sight of where we came from or the values that have guided us every step of the way.

This milestone isn’t just about us—it’s about the relationships we’ve built and the incredible businesses we’ve had the privilege of supplying over the past 10 years. Whether you’ve been with us from the beginning or have joined us more recently, we’re grateful to have you as part of the Smith & Brock family.

As we look ahead, we’ll continue to do what we’ve always set out to do: source the very best produce, deliver exceptional service, and support an industry we’re incredibly proud to be part of.

Thank you for being part of our story. Here’s to the next chapter and many more years of working together.

Thank you for an incredible 10 years.

Smith and Brocks relationship with Le Cordon Bleu dates back 10 years now, and is a relationship built on one simple thing: supplying the team with top quality produce with great service at a competitive price.

We are very proud to serve Cordon Bleu School, and be part of this culinary education institution, which teaches students how to cook with the best produce.

Part of a family of Sugar Plums, these lend themselves to being cooked as they hold their shape well and the flavour is enhanced.
When raw, they do not hold the same appeal, but tarte aux quetsches, for instance, reveals the true nature of this bountiful fruit.

ℂ𝕒𝕟𝕕𝕪 𝔾𝕣𝕒𝕡𝕖
Very high in sugar and with a little crunch to them, they are little bonbons from nature. A limited supply of the red, round Candy Snaps is now available from Spain.
