Episode 36, Landrace

Whether it’s making the best bread in the world, baking pastries that become addictive or creating warm and beautiful spaces, Landrace are the benchmark to the majority! As someone that’s seen Landrace grow since it’s fruition in 2019, it was a privilege to chat with founder Andrew Lowkes about how the brands identity has evolved and where his passion lies. 

Andrew is VERY knowledgeable, and you will hear that he really is a connoisseur, whether that’s about the stone-milled flour he now produces, the ingredients he sources or simply quality in general. What strikes me about all of the successful founders I interview is that they all have a thirst for detail which leads them to becoming experts in their field. As I talked to Andrew it became apparent that much of Landrace’s growth is down to his fever for learning but also due to the relationships he’s formed over the years. 

What I loved was that at the centre of it all, is this idea of pleasure and that he is a merchant of pleasure. Andrew is passionate, and a really warm generous person. You can see why Landrace has the reputation and respect it has.
