Windermere-based business Lakeland Hampers has launched a new permanent shop in Kendal.
Situated in the town’s new lifestyle destination Spinning Jennies on Finkle Street, which was formerly home to the Beales department store, the new store is the fifth shop the firm have opened in Cumbria.
This year also marks 20 years since Lakeland Hampers was first launched – which they commemorated by opening the doors to the new shop on Wednesday.
Geoff Monkman, managing director said: “It’s very exciting to finally open a permanent shop in Kendal stocking an array of products that we handmake ourselves just one mile away, we are also proud to be supporting other local businesses.”
Lakeland Hampers allows customers to create their own bespoke hamper for any occasion, which can then be packaged and either taken away or ordered for delivery.
The shop offers a selection of locally made produce, including Kendal-based Gin by Herdwick Distillery, delicious relishes and jams, liqueurs, traditional soft drinks, and other local brands such as Romneys, Pennington’s and Ginger Bakers alongside beers from twelve local breweries.
