Founded in 2007 by Dale Gibson and Sarah Wyndham Lewis, Bermondsey Street Bees is a sustainable beekeeping practice located in Essex in the UK, supplying hotels, restaurants, and bars with multi-award-winning raw honeys. Extending their impact through ‘Apis’, their Apicultural Consultancy, they also advise corporations on meaningful CSR, ESG, and biodiversity projects. Sarah is a professional Honey Sommelier, working internationally with artisan honey producers.
Bermondsey Street Bees’ commitment to bee welfare is evident in their local-scale artisanal honey production and traditional beekeeping methods. Sited away from monoculturally farmed areas, their fifteen different apiaries thrive on wild, rewilded, and regenerative sites, safeguarding the bees’ well-being and, vitally, supporting pollinator biodiversity.
They focus on supplying these characterful, raw, single-source varietals to chefs and bartenders who prioritise fully traceable native production, shunning anonymous, highly processed blends in favour of honey with authentic terroir and compelling stories.
Relocating their Honey HQ from central London to coastal Essex in 2022, Dale and Sarah now live and work from 4 acres of land near Maldon, where they're developing an organic, closed system of regenerative land management, incorporating pollinator plantings, wildlife habitats, kitchen gardens, and wilderness areas.
