Chelmsford Star Co-operative Society Identity

Chelmsford Star Co-operative Society has pledged to source and bring together the excellence of Essex food and beverage producers. This important initiative is to be promoted under the ‘Only Way is Local; Support your Essex Producer’ marque.

The society deems that “local” means goods that have been cultivated or produced in Essex where possible, using locally sourced ingredients.

Marketing & PR Manager Vanessa Howard said;

“There is a huge raft of fantastic food and drink products being made in our county and as an Essex organisation; we felt it was time we shouted about them in a more meaningful way.”

“Our commitment to supporting Essex producers, means we can also contribute to the growth and stimulation of local commence making a positive impact on business growth, employment and prosperity”

“Furthermore, our members and customers can be confident that when they buy local produce they are supporting the Essex economy and the people who live here”
