RAW adds Black Bee Honey to its portfolio of outstanding food and drink clients

Food and drink PR agency RAW is delighted to announce the addition of award-winning B Corp Black Bee Honey to its growing portfolio of clients. The specialist agency is renowned nationally for working with premium brands who are at the pinnacle of their sector. 

Commenting on behalf of RAW, founder and director Hayley Reynolds says: “Everything about Black Bee Honey stands out, from the exceptional taste of their range of honeys to its wonderful founders’ story, design and sustainability credentials.  Its 1-star wins for three of their honeys in the coveted Great Taste Awards fully endorses this and makes it a superb addition to RAW’s client base.”

Paul Webb, Black Bee Honey’s co-founder, adds: “Our initial focus with RAW will be to launch our stunning new Christmas gift sets and we have lots of exciting plans in the pipeline so there will be plenty to announce over the coming months.”

Founders Paul and Chris Barnes began beekeeping in London back in 2010. Beginning with hives in their back gardens, they realised how incredible honey tasted straight from the hive, worlds apart from the imported product found on most supermarket shelves. Inspired, they decided to share this discovery and reverse the trend of cheap, flavourless fake honey.  Before launching Black Bee Honey they ran a hive rental service where they installed and maintained hives all over London.  They now have headquarters in Somerset and their collective produces single origin honeys with the beekeeper and location stamped on every jar. 

British Black Bee Honey became a B Corp in 2023 with sustainability at the core of everything they do.  It donates 2% of its turnover for wildflower meadows and so far has created over 20 acres of meadows, so purchases of any Black Bee honey will help honey bees and other pollinators. 

The wide selection of Black Bee Honey includes British Spring Honey, Pollen Honey, Starflower Honey, Seaside Honey and Fermented Sriracha Honey.  They also produce a Black Bee Honey Gin. 

Black Bee Honey can be found in Selfridges, Whole Foods, National Trust, Booths, Holland & Barrett as well as served in the prestigious Four Seasons hotel group.  The range is also available at www.blackbeehoney.com.
