A few things we’re great at
Over the years, we’ve gained a deep well of experience—learning the hard way, navigating setbacks, and mastering the skills that only come from facing real challenges. If you’re feeling the pressure right now, we’ve likely been there too. And in moments like this, we always ask ourselves: “Is this a breakdown… or a breakthrough?” More often than not, once the dust settles, it’s the breakthrough that comes next.
That mindset is at the heart of what we offer. You’re not alone in this—we become your back-room team, your sounding board, your momentum builders. We bring strategy, support, and calm confidence when things feel chaotic. Whether you’re relaunching a food brand, reviving an online store, or starting fresh after a setback, we’re right behind you every step of the way.
With us, it’s not just about surviving the tough times—it’s about using them as a springboard to something stronger. We help you push through to the next chapter, armed with clarity, experience, and a team that truly cares about your success. Let’s turn this into the breakthrough you’ve been waiting for.
Distressed Food Business Relaunch
For many food businesses facing tough times—whether due to financial stress, operational setbacks, or lost momentum—relaunching can feel overwhelming. That’s where The Worldwide Food Club steps in. We specialise in turning struggling producers, bakers, cafes, and food brands around by offering a complete relaunch strategy, tailored to the unique challenges of each business. From repositioning your products to rebuilding customer trust, we bring not only experience but a ready-made platform for exposure, sales, and long-term stability.
Our team handles everything that often causes stress during a relaunch: branding, e-commerce setup, marketing, logistics, supplier relationships, and even social media. We plug businesses directly into our network of loyal food-loving customers and give access to a full suite of tools, including websites, product photography, copywriting, sales campaigns, and support with wholesale and direct-to-consumer channels. With minimal upfront cost and a focus on collaboration, we do the heavy lifting so you can focus on what you do best—making great food.
Whether it’s reviving a beloved pie shop, launching a new online store for a cheesemaker, or expanding a regional deli’s reach across the UK, we take pride in restoring confidence and revenue. The Worldwide Food Club doesn’t just offer a second chance—we build lasting partnerships, with shared success at the heart of everything we do. If your food business needs a lifeline, we’re ready to step in and get things back on track—quickly, professionally, and with heart.
SALESARM- Web Social & Online
The digital side is often the first thing to fall behind, outdated websites, neglected social media, and lost online momentum. That’s where Salesarm, our in-house digital engine, steps in. With over 25 years of experience (plus a couple of well-earned gap years), Salesarm has been designing, building, hosting, and managing websites and marketing strategies for businesses big and small. Now she’s back—sharper, faster, and more creative than ever—and ready to breathe new life into your business. Whether you need a brand-new site or a full digital reboot, we build fast, modern, mobile-first websites that look great, convert well, and are fully connected to your sales channels.
Our web development packages go beyond just looking good. We focus on practical, sales-focused features—secure online shops, subscription models, click-and-collect tools, product landing pages, and wholesale ordering systems. Every site we create is designed to grow with you, with hosting, backups, and technical support all included. We also manage your domain names, email accounts, and integrations with tools like Mailchimp, Shopify, WooCommerce, and Google Analytics. And because we understand the food industry inside out, your site will speak directly to your customers—from pie lovers to artisan cheese buyers—without you lifting a finger.
Alongside the website, we take charge of your entire digital presence. Salesarm offers social media management, paid advertising, influencer outreach, email marketing, and more. We’ll rebuild your brand voice, design campaign visuals, and keep your channels active and engaging. You’ll get a clear strategy, a ready-made content calendar, and monthly reports so you always know what’s working. From launch posts to product features and behind-the-scenes stories, we make sure your brand feels alive again.

British Food Platform
The concept for the British Food Club came from our many visits to food festivals and markets around the UK and abroad, why not bring producers together and allow them to focus on what they do best.
Our mission here is to create a platform that promotes British food and local producers, emphasising sustainability, healthier eating, and a circular economy while providing diverse income streams through innovative business models and strategic partnerships. This has been over ten years in planning and development we intent to launch early 2026.
Meat to Your Door
With deep roots in the British butchery trade and a genuine concern for the decline of traditional high street butchers, we’re committed to giving back and supporting the future of the craft.
We’re now developing a comprehensive butchery support platform designed to assist butchers both in the UK and globally. Our goal is to help traditional butchery businesses embrace the digital age by offering a complete end-to-end solution—whether they’re established or just starting out. From marketing training and website development to Google and social media integration, we provide the tools and support needed to thrive in today’s competitive market.
Our Principles and culture
Having studied many a business book and attended many more courses and seminars, we’ve even presented a good few too, our culture is one we hope reflects yours.
Raise Your Hand – Say YES
So often in life, we have great business ideas—but years later, we look back and think, “If only I’d spoken up or asked for help.” At The Worldwide Food Club, we believe in one simple principle: “They can only say yes.”
If you have an idea, concept, or business plan and want to talk it through with like-minded people who can offer honest feedback, guidance, and support—don’t let it slip away. Reach out for a free, no-obligation conversation. You might just take the first step toward something amazing.
Make Life a Party
At The Worldwide Food Club, we believe in collaboration over competition, progress over perfection, and people over profits. We foster a culture built on trust, creativity, and shared success—where food producers, entrepreneurs, and innovators come together to grow, support each other, and reimagine what’s possible.
We value transparency, inclusivity, and resourcefulness. Whether you’re a seasoned butcher, a budding pie maker, or a digital-first food startup, you’re part of a community that believes in lifting each other up and growing stronger together.

How We Help
Here are a few of the clients we have worked with and how we have helped them grow and develop.
Working alongside Kevin and Gemma, our Salesarm division developed a unique web presence and a fully integrated room booking system that syncs seamlessly across multiple platforms. This integration has saved the business many hours each week, eliminating the ongoing costs typically associated with standalone booking tools. Additionally, we were able to recover valuable digital assets and access that had been lost when the previous tenants left—saving even more time, stress, and effort.
Star Inn Weaverthorpe
We’ve had the pleasure of working with Swains Family Butchers for over 40 years in various capacities. Our founder, Darren, began his career there as an apprentice and now supports the business by supplying baked goods and providing both digital and offline marketing consultancy as needed. While the butchery trade is traditionally slow to adopt digital tools, Swains have embraced social media with impressive results. We’ve also guided them step by step onto the eCommerce ladder, helping them grow their online presence at a steady and sustainable pace.
Swains Butchers : York
Working closely with Jerry and Euan, we collaborated through our York Pie brand to develop a range of unique Wagyu pie flavours. Collaboration is at the heart of what we do, and this project was a true highlight—from the first meeting and flavour profiling sessions to final production and tasting. We also worked together to create a delicious Wagyu sausage range. The opportunity to work with such a premium ingredient was irresistible—if you’ve never tried Wagyu, it’s a game-changer. This was a truly enjoyable and rewarding journey for everyone involved.
