Littleover Apiaries Ltd is one of the UK’s largest and most respected honey producers, supplying a wide range of honey and hive products across the UK, Europe and internationally. Founded in the late 1990s as a small Derbyshire honey farm by Tony Spacey, the business has grown into a major commercial producer and packer of honey while maintaining a strong commitment to quality, sustainability and bee welfare.
Today Littleover Apiaries is headquartered at Unit 16, Robinsons Industrial Estate, Shaftesbury Street, Derby, DE23 8NL, where honey is blended, packed and prepared for retail, food service and catering customers. While much of the honey they supply is blended to meet consistent flavour and quality profiles for bulk and retail needs, Littleover Apiaries uses cold extraction and cold filtration methods to ensure honey remains as true to its natural character as possible and retains its enzymes, proteins and floral notes.
The Littleover range includes classic English honeys such as clear and set wildflower honey, heather honey, and a variety of organic honey types, along with speciality blends and products sourced from around the world. The company also offers beeswax products like candles and pollen, reflecting their broad involvement in the honey and hive-product market.
Littleover Apiaries balances commercial scale with respect for the bees and natural processes, combining traditional beekeeping practices with modern processing and in-house laboratory quality control. Their honey appears in supermarkets, independent food retailers and online, making authentic, flavourful honey accessible to households and businesses alike
This producer forms part of the wider tradition of local honey in Derbyshire within England.
