Maria and Rick Uribe have owned the business since March 2016, when they purchased it from the former owners. Maria was born in Surrey, England but grew up in Brighton, Sussex, and after 23 years of marriage, Rick (who is from Texas) is now an honorary Brit! They are proud to provide a large selection of much-loved goodies from the U.K. including British Groceries, Teas, Chocolates, Frozen Foods, and Gifts from England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales.
