Like most good food stories, ours started in a kitchen
Our Founder Anna has always loved cooking - the way small ingredients transform a meal and the joy of getting flavour just right. But growing up on her family's Norfolk farm, she kept seeing the same problem: how quickly fresh ingredients fade once they leave the field. By the time they reach our plates, they’re often a pale version of their former glory. The ingredients that make food taste great are the first ones to fail. Wilted herbs. Sprouting garlic. Fresh flavour gone before it’s used. And don’t get her started on the soulless, tasteless dried alternatives.
While studying at Cambridge, Anna discovered a way to hold flavour at its best. Not improve it or replace it - just stop it disappearing before you get a chance to use it. That insight became JUX: whole ingredients, captured at peak flavour, ready whenever you need them.
FAST FORWARD TO 2022 AND BEYOND...
Anna started small: pots at farmers’ markets, selling out to people who wanted the flavour of fresh without the waste. Then bigger: a range of ingredients now used by home cooks, chefs and busy families across the UK, and stocked in Tesco, Ocado and beyond. Anna believes everyone deserves food that tastes properly good - not just people with time, energy, or perfect ingredients. Which evolved into our JUX mantra: Just like fresh, without the prep.
