Chris and Lynn Mann wanted to diversify on their Lothians farm near Gorebridge and started a cold pressed rapeseed oil business five years ago.

Now the couple have a loyal, international customer base which includes Michelin-starred chef, Martin Wishart.

Their products can also be found in top London store Harrods and Supernature Oils are exported around the world to countries including Hong Kong, Dubai and Borneo.

It is an undoubted business success story for the company based at Carrington Barns Farm, Gorebridge who hosted a group from Midlothian and East Lothian Chamber of Commerce who wanted to know more about their portfolio.

The oils derive their quality and light, buttery flavour from the way Chris and Lynn plant, grow, harvest, dry and press their oilseed rape crop.

And the award-winning company now have the broadest range in the UK.
