Welcome to Ellsey’s – bulk vinegar exporters and a key supplier to UK food manufacturers

Ellsey & Co is a unique British company. For over 80 years we have brewed stocked and supplied a single product – VINEGAR. We have a long standing reputation within the UK food industry for exceptional service – something that we work hard to protect on a daily basis. Our flexibility and quick reaction times will give you the peace of mind to know that your vinegar is where you need it, when you need it.

We have always been a family owned company with many long serving members of staff.  Although we are rightly proud of our past we are great believers in investing for the future. Our state of the art IT systems and continuous staff development programs give us capabilities well beyond our size and enables us to constantly evolve, an essential ingredient in today’s fast moving business world.

IBC vinegar container

IBC 1000 Litres

and offer unparalleled prices and service levels.

25 Litre Vinegar Container

25 Litre Drums

The smallest containers we provide are 25 litre drums,
minimum order quantity is 32 drums (800 litres).

Due to the high weight of our products, we have stopped supplying in 210 litre drums and customers will require a fork lift truck at the delivery site for unloading.  We cannot provide tail lifts as our pallets are too heavy for manual handling.

If you need to order a smaller quantity, Vinegar Tips supply many of our vinegars in smaller, more flexible, quantities.
