Tell us a bit about your company
The Big Dipper is a flavour first dip brand with a hope to redefine modern snacking with vibrant, clean‑label, naturally preserved dips crafted for everyone! But especially, retailers, foodies, and home gourmets. Born from a passion for food and clean eating, we were getting tired of the solely houmous-on-houmous offerings that’s only on offer on the current UK market. Our clean recipes balance cheap and premium produce, and silky textures perfectly designed for spreading, scooping, and sharing.
Born from an idea and with the help of the King’s Trust we are a young company that seems to be going from strength to strength. From working tirelessly through several nights to perform for the BBC Good Food Summer Show we have ridden that success to find our way here at lunch! From our secretly vegan offerings and proudly veggie cheesy dips, consumers seem to not be able to get enough of us and our chickpea-free dips!
Our secret recipes naturally preserve the dips for up to 30 days unopened, giving wholesalers and retailers a reliable, easy product to stock with excellent chilled shelf stability. Come find us to taste our full flavour offerings!

Why is exhibiting at lunch! an unmissable opportunity for you?
Exhibiting at lunch! is a major moment for The Big Dipper because it places our dip range directly in front of the UK’s most influential buyers, wholesalers, deli operators, and food service KDMs. The multiple shows at once attracts exactly the audience we’re built for: people who care about bold flavour, and premium products that bring genuine innovation to consumer counters.
It’s also a key opportunity to highlight our technical advantage: our naturally preserved recipes deliver up to 30 days unopened shelf life, making them exceptionally easy to stock, store, and rotate for wholesalers and retailers. This reliability is a major selling point for buyers seeking products that balance creativity with commercial practicality.
lunch! also allows us to build relationships, secure listings, and introduce our brand to operators looking for standout chilled products with strong repeat purchase potential.
It’s where lot’s of opportunities are coming to meet and we are very lucky and glad to meet the opportunity.
