Company details

Written by the company

Richardson’s Jersey Royals are proudly grown on the island of Jersey by one of the island’s oldest farming families, with a heritage dating back to the early 1500s. Built on generations of knowledge and care for the land, our approach combines traditional farming values with modern techniques to produce Jersey Royals of exceptional quality and flavour. Our potatoes are carefully hand picked and gently handled to protect their delicate skins, before being washed and packed using a unique system designed to preserve freshness and taste. From field to fork, every step is focused on delivering the authentic Jersey Royal experience that has made them so highly regarded. We grow all of our crops to LEAF Marque standards, with a strong emphasis on sustainability and soil health. Our use of liquid seaweed as part of our growing process supports both the land and the flavour and texture of our potatoes. Whether purchased locally or delivered directly to your door, Richardson’s Jersey Royals are a true taste of Jersey: fresh, distinctive, and produced with care at every stage.

Richardsons jersey royals are…truly delicious

Richardsons jersey royals are absolutely the best you can buy. 1st class quality and taste.
I have taken off 1 star not because of the quality or price but because of the delivery company used which is now Evri. The service was far more reliable when delivered by Royal Mail.

Taste is incredible

As companies go this is definitely one of the best, I have been buying my Jersey potato for some years now, from Richardson ordering is easy, and delivery is super quick, and the taste, well taste is amazing as they are dug up packed and posted the same day.
Well done Richardson 👏

The spuds are delicious

The spuds are delicious, only place where you get proper Jersey's not old stock in supermarkets purporting to be Jersey that taste of nothing. Not cheap but no postage costs and worth every bite!

Really wanted to enjoy some fresh…

Really wanted to enjoy some fresh Jersey Royals with Sunday lunch, however your delivery company Evri let you down, thankfully you realised there was an issue and they were finally delivered today, Tuesday. Not entirely sure what happened with the first order as seemed like and automated email email response stating something had happened without actually confirming the issue? There couldn’t have been a delay as only the second order turned up, so where did the first order of potatoes end up?

Hi, thank you for your review. We’re really sorry to hear about your experience.

You’re absolutely right to expect your order to arrive in good time, and it’s frustrating when that doesn’t happen. We rely on our delivery partners to get orders to you quickly, but take responsibility for the overall experience. On this occasion it clearly wasn’t good enough.

We’re pleased the replacement reached you, but appreciate that it wasn’t when you expected it. We’re continually reviewing delivery performance and processes to minimise issues like this, as getting our potatoes from field to fork quickly is something we take a lot of pride in.

If there’s anything further we can do for you, please don’t hesitate to get in touch directly.
