Corkers Crisps

The proverb 'two heads are better than one' has certainly proved to be true for best friends and owners of Corkers Crisps, Rod Garnham and Ross Taylor. Four years ago, the duo emptied their piggy banks and used every bit of cash they had to set up the firm.

Unstable prices for agriculture have turned two British farmers into potato chip producers: Here is how childhood friends Rod Garnham and Ross Taylor established Corkers Crisps.

A small British potato chip/crisp manufacturer – Corkers Crisps of Ely, Cambridgeshire has set a new Guiness record for the largest bag of potato chips ever lifted. The bag measured 5.5 metres high and had to be strong enough to support over a tonne.

It’s not every day a new crisp company is born. You tend to think that the market has long ago been sewn up by the likes of Walkers and Kettles, but, make way for Corkers.
