Nottingham - Nottingham

Welcome to Nottingham Food Assembly, putting 'super' back into supermarket.

We offer local, sustainable produce with all the convenience of online click & collect shopping, combined with the opportunity to meet the producers & shake the hand that feeds you.

Order online through the website then come along to pick up your fresh produce at our weekly collection on Thursdays, 6-7:30pm at Primary Studios, Seely Road near Canning Circus. Alternatively you can have your produce delivered to NG2 & NG3.

All sales are in advance through this website which minimises wastage as all the food producers know in advance exactly how much to prepare.

We also have delicious meals available to buy and eat on the night prepared by Small Food Bakery using local produce.

~3 Reasons to shop this way, other than the taste:
1. Fresh Food baked, bottled, harvested or roasted on the day you collect it and without additional preservatives or additives.
2. Support Local Businesses as over 90p of every £1 you spend stays in the local economy and the farmer receives over 83% of the takings (yet only 20-40% from the supermarket).
3. Tip-top quality since all producers are carefully vetted. Our famers know first-hand that the care they give their land and animals results in the quality of produce you on your dinner table. Our food-makers source ingredients and packaging ethically, organically and locally as far as humanly possible.
