Known for getting
the job done
N.E. Appleton is a UK-based fresh produce agent with one goal: connecting the right producers with the right buyers, every time.
The Story
Built on straight talking and hard work
N.E. Appleton was founded with a simple idea: the fresh produce trade doesn't need to be complicated. Growers need buyers. Buyers need reliable supply. A good agent makes that happen — without the fuss.
We operate as a lean, low-cost agency. That means no inflated overheads passed on to you, no unnecessary layers, and no messing around. Just honest, direct trading.
Our ambition is straightforward: to build a business that's known worldwide for reliability, integrity, and results. One deal at a time.

What We Stand For
Our values
Straight talking
We say what we mean and mean what we say. No spin, no vague promises. If something works, we'll tell you. If it doesn't, we'll tell you that too.
Reliability
We follow through. If we say we'll do something, it gets done. That's the foundation of every good trading relationship.
The right match
We don't force deals. We take the time to understand what each producer offers and find buyers who genuinely need it.
Long-term thinking
We're not here for a quick commission. We want to build lasting relationships that deliver value year after year.

Work With Us
Big ambitions. Grounded approach.
We're building something significant — a produce agency that producers around the world trust to represent them in the UK. If you want to be part of that, we'd love to hear from you.
