When Sophia came across Holywell Press, she instantly connected with the company's history and the story of a family continuing a traditional business. With no prior experience of working with a commercial printer, online reviews were important to her:

Sophia was looking for a local printer that could produce bespoke packaging (product labels and printed paper wrappers) for her terracotta pots. She sent Holywell her initial packaging design, wanting to find the right materials for a quality finish. Sophia was invited to visit and brought along some empty pots to help the Holywell team visualise her idea. The meeting sparked conversations around practicality and cost-effectiveness and allowed Sophia to handle different paper samples and discuss print finishes.

Since working on Sophia’s packaging, Holywell has now designed materials for tasting sessions, as well as scaling up Philotrophie’s packaging designs for a new range of larger yoghurt pots.

Philotrophie Shepherds’ Yoghurt is currently stocked at Daylesford Organic, Ascott village shop, Chadlington Quality Foods, and is on the menu at the Rise and Flour in Milton under Wychwood and Burford Garden Centre café. It is also available direct to private customers.

Buoyed by feedback from customers who value the superior consistency, flavour, and health benefits of her yoghurt compared to supermarket offerings, Sophia is already developing new product ideas.
