Month-long September retail campaign will combine curated product displays from the UK, sampling, live demonstrations and culinary storytelling Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], September 12: Indian shoppers will be able to discover and experience a curated selection of best of British food and drink through ‘Great Food From Great Britain’, a month-long retail campaign running across Mumbai, Delhi, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad and Bengaluru this September. Led by the UK Government’s Department for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade (BIST), the campaign will be activated at participating Food Square and Food Stories stores through dedicated displays, product sampling and in-store experiences. It will introduce consumers to the quality, provenance and breadth of British products, while offering practical inspiration for enjoying them across everyday meals and special occasions.

Throughout September, the campaign will feature live cooking demonstrations, workshops, product storytelling and tastings designed to bring food traditions and products from the UK to life. Shoppers will be encouraged to explore new products, pairings and serving ideas across occasions including breakfast and brunch, tea-time, gifting, entertaining, picnics and contemporary at-home dining.

Stephen Hickling, British Deputy High Commissioner to Gujarat and Rajasthan, said: “The UK has a strong reputation for quality, provenance and innovation, and the campaign offers Indian consumers an opportunity to discover the breadth of what British food and drink has to offer. With the UK-India Free Trade Agreement now in effect, initiatives such as this retail partnership complements the opportunities into greater awareness, discovery and demand, while creating new avenues for UK businesses to engage with one of India’s most dynamic and important markets. We are delighted that Ahmedabad is part of this celebration and look forward to seeing British brands connect with consumers here.” Mayank Gupta, Co-Founder & Managing Director, Food Square, said, “Food Square has always been about bringing the world to the Indian table. With nearly 1,000 UK products on our shelves, the Great Food From Great Britain campaign felt like a natural extension of that, giving people a taste of British food culture, not just its products. From stocking iconic brands like Mackays and Colman’s to bangers and mash and sticky toffee pudding on our thematic café menu, we’re making British food feel accessible, exciting and easy to enjoy.”

The campaign is designed for food-curious consumers and occasion-led shoppers seeking premium and international products, as well as fresh inspiration for entertaining and social occasions. By combining product discovery with sampling and culinary experiences, the initiative aims to make British food and drink engaging, relevant and accessible to Indian consumers. The UK-India trade deal which came into effect on 15 July this year has also made access to several food and drink products cheaper, quicker and easier, bringing sweeping benefits for consumers across both countries. Great Food From Great Britain brings together British products like cheese, biscuits, cookies, jams, teas, coffees, chocolates and more in a coordinated multi-city retail platform. The campaign supports greater awareness and trial of food and drink from the UK while helping consumers discover new ways to enjoy British flavours at home and on special occasions.
