Stokes Real Tomato Ketchup

Stokes Sauces was founded in 2004 by Rick Sheepshanks with a commitment to creating food that tastes real, starting with its flagship Real Tomato Ketchup. The brand is known for using high-quality ingredients, such as Italian tomatoes, and avoiding artificial additives. The production facilities are based at Rendlesham Hall in Suffolk, England, where the products are cooked in small batches to maintain their premium quality.

The brand has remained true to its artisanal roots while expanding its reach across the UK and international markets. Unlike many large-scale condiment brands that are owned by massive multinational conglomerates, Stokes Sauces continues to be an independent entity managed by its original founding team and local investors, ensuring that its British heritage and manufacturing standards remain a core part of the brand's identity.
