E5 Bakehouse
ORGANIC BAKERY, MILL AND SHOP.
We moved into our own arch in the summer of 2011 and expanded over the years, tunnelling left and then right into adjacent arches, adding a pastry department, flour mill, chocolate facility, and a deli shop to the mix.
As an extension of the Just Bread refugee training programme we ran in collaboration with the Refugee Council, we opened Poplar Bakehouse in 2017 in Tower Hamlets. The main aim of this cafe and coffee roastery, which is now also a shop and bakery, was to employ and train people from refugee communities whilst investing profits back into projects which support and welcome refugees arriving in the UK.
The company also owns Fellows Farm in Suffolk, which is transitioning intensively farmed arable fields into hubs for biodiversity and food production based on regenerative agriculture practices. The farm supplies cereals, vegetables and fruit to the bakery on a weekly basis. Overall, the company was founded and has continued to develop with an intense commitment to sustainability, and we strive to better our social, economic and environmental impact through our business activities.
