In 2017, Chilli Mash Company (Our parent) decided to create a retail platform for a wide selection of ethically sourced chilli products.
Roll on to March 2020 when Covid hit and One Stop Chilli Shop literally saved our business by becoming our bread & butter during the lockdowns. When the first lockdown commenced, our manufacturing work dried up overnight, but fortunately, within days, our legendary customers began ordering online and referring us to their friends.
For around 4-5 months, whilst Covid was at its most severe, our team was just 2 or 3 loyal staff members who came in every day and shipped out supplies to people all over the EU.
As business began to boom online we grew in confidence and eventually sold our entire 2020 fresh chilli crop a kilo at a time, which helped counter-balance the lack of manufacturing we were doing for others.

This new platform will offer us better future scalability and most importantly to begin serving the EU again.
