About Langmead Herbs
Growing fresh herbs
sustainably all year round
The Langmead Herbs story
David Langmead founded Langmead Herbs in 2012 on the back of five farming generations. With his roots and appetite for enterprise, the business was always set for ambitious heights.
Sustainable growth
Environmental sustainability is central to Langmead Herbs. The business also believes in nurturing people for sustainable business growth.
The West Sussex company has developed high-performing teams of committed people, respected for their strengths, knowledge, and experience.
This has fuelled an innovative and customer-focused business with excellent partnerships.
Farming DNA
Forming Langmead Farms in 1987, David first used the latest technologies to supply fresh lettuce to Tesco.
His ambitions and enterprises grew as he moved into added value categories – including fresh herbs. With family farming roots dating back to 1590, the Langmead DNA would always ensure high yields.
Langmead Herbs will always be a great place to work and a proactive supplier.
