Charity Edition - Smooth Chocolate Spread 240g

Meridian Foods

£3.39

We believe nature produces the best and tastiest ingredients. So, every jar of Chocca contains over 50% nutritious nuts (peanut, cashew hazelnut) blended with cocoa to create a deliciously rich and chocolatey spread, containing 50% less sugar*. To help support International Animal Rescue continue their amazing conservation work with our ginger cousins, the Orangutan, we're also donating 5p from every charity edition jar purchased. For a delicious start to the day, why not spread on toast or pancakes? We've created a fun Chocca Orangutan Pancake recipe which kids (of all ages) will love! Proudl

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as MERIDIAN FOODS LIMITED, number 05440745. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
The company describes its own premises: "We are now one of the fastest-growing major food brands in the UK & Ireland with the widest range of nut butters, made in our own factory in North Wales." Self-declared (§3.3), read from the company's site. Source.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
No majority shareholding traced outside the UK. Companies House.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
