ABOUT US
Taming a Dragon lead to success
Hi, I'm Kirsty, a real mum from Lancashire and the founder of Kirsty’s, a range of healthy, free-from ready meals. My journey began 10 years ago when I learned of my son Jacob's food allergies, prompting me to create healthier food options, starting with a free-from ice cream. This led to a pivotal moment where I realized I could share my creations, eventually showcasing them on Dragons’ Den in 2010, where I partnered with investors Peter Jones and Duncan Bannatyne.
As the business grew, I saw a gap in the market for healthy, allergen-free ready meals, leading to the launch of Kirsty's range in supermarkets in 2012. Despite not being a professional chef or dietitian, I am committed to providing nutritious meals without gluten, wheat, or dairy. Our meals emphasize taste without the need for common allergens, catering to those with allergies, intolerances, and Coeliac Disease.
Looking ahead, despite the challenges posed by Covid-19, I am excited to open a state-of-the-art, 100% allergen-free food factory in 2020. This new chapter allows us to fully control production and ensure the highest quality. I am grateful to our customers for their support and eagerly anticipate introducing more innovative products from our NPD kitchen. Thank you for being part of our journey and for your continuous engagement with our brand.
