LAVERDE Artisan Expands UK Retail Network with Flynn’s Delicatessen in Swansea, Wales

LAVERDE Artisan is continuing the expansion of its independent UK retail network, with selected products from the range now available at Flynn’s Delicatessen in Swansea, Wales.

The new Swansea stockist extends LAVERDE's physical retail presence beyond its established London base and represents another step in the brand's strategy of growing through carefully selected independent food businesses across the UK.

LAVERDE arrives in Swansea

LAVERDE built its first retail network in London, where more than 30 independent specialists now form the core of the brand's physical presence. Rather than treating that concentration as the end point, the business is using it as a foundation for a more selective national expansion.

Flynn’s Delicatessen brings that journey into Wales. For customers in and around Swansea, the partnership creates a new opportunity to discover LAVERDE products through an independent specialist retailer rather than relying exclusively on online ordering.

The broader strategy remains deliberately measured: LAVERDE is expanding region by region, working with retailers whose customers value quality, provenance and products with a clear story behind them.

Selected LAVERDE Artisan products now available in Wales

Flynn’s is carrying selected products from the LAVERDE Artisan range. Because independent retailers curate their own assortment and stock can change, customers looking for a particular item are encouraged to contact the store directly before visiting.

The wider LAVERDE collection includes single-estate Sicilian Biancolilla extra virgin olive oil, raw Sicilian honey, Villalba black lentils and Café Madrigal Colombian specialty coffee.

The range received significant independent recognition in 2026. Café Madrigal was awarded 2 stars — Outstanding — at the Great Taste Awards, Villalba black lentils received 1 star and later Bronze at the Great British Food Awards 2026, and LAVERDE's Sicilian extra virgin olive oil won Silver at the Great British Food Awards 2026 in the Kitchen Condiments category.

Why Wales matters in LAVERDE's UK growth

Expanding outside London changes the way the brand can be discovered. It takes LAVERDE from a strong metropolitan retail network toward a genuinely broader UK presence, while retaining the independent-retail model that shaped the brand from the beginning.

That matters because LAVERDE's proposition depends on more than packaging or price. The products are built around specific origin stories: a named Sicilian olive cultivar, direct sourcing relationships, defined harvests and specialist products chosen for provenance and character. Independent delicatessens provide an environment where those distinctions can be explained and appreciated.

Adding Swansea to the network therefore represents more than another point on a stockist list. It is evidence that the retail proposition developed in London can be carried into new UK regions without becoming a mass-distribution strategy.

A London-founded brand growing selectively across the UK

LAVERDE remains proud of the London network where its retail story began. The next phase is about building on that foundation: London first, then carefully selected partners in other parts of the UK, supported by nationwide direct delivery for customers who do not yet have a local stockist.

Customers can follow the developing network on the LAVERDE stockists and UK availability page.

Independent retailers interested in joining the network can visit the Wholesale & Trade Hub. Journalists and editors can access company background, awards, approved boilerplate and downloadable media resources through the LAVERDE Press Room.

Built in London. Growing across the UK through carefully selected independent food retailers.
