Sprout is a grocery store in development, focused on seasonal produce, trusted suppliers, and low-waste choices—without the fuss.
We’re working on Sprout: a community-focused grocery store built around seasonal produce, responsible sourcing, and low-waste choices. We’re still in the early stages—join the list to follow the journey and help shape what we build.
Everyone’s invited
Help shape Sprout
Sprout is still in development, and we want everyone who cares about good food to be part of it. Whether you’re a neighbour, a future customer, a grower, investor, or a maker, your ideas now will help decide what this grocery store becomes.

What we’re building
Sprout is designed to make everyday shopping simpler, fairer, and more sustainable.
Seasonal, quality-first produce
Food that tastes great and reflects the seasons.
Local suppliers where possible
Supporting nearby growers and independent producers.
Low-waste shopping
Refill and reduced packaging options built into the plan.
A practical everyday range
Not just “speciality” — staples you’ll actually use week to week.
Sprout is being developed by a small worker‑owned co‑operative in Leicester. We’re neighbours, food‑lovers, and organisers who want a better way to shop for everyday essentials.
