E026 - Peter Elbourne from Shore Seaweed

We are thrilled to be interviewing Peter Elbourne, Managing Director of Supply & Operations at SHORE The Scottish Company. They aim to be the UK’s leading seaweed company. They hand harvest organic seaweed from the remote and rugged shores of northern Scotland. Sustainability is central to what they do. No-one else offers their range of organic seaweed at wholesale scale in the UK. To achieve volume sales, they have developed a range of seaweed-based products to sell into retail under our brand SHORE – the first of which is their Seaweed Puffs. Seaweed is the star ingredient, but their healthy snacking products also deliver on taste. In the coming years we want to expand our harvesting operations and introduce cultivation for key commercial species. They will also diversify beyond food into new markets for seaweed.
