Guest Speaker Martin Thatcher
In 1904, William Thatcher founded Thatchers Cider on his Somerset Farm in Sandford. Today, his great- grandson Martin Thatcher runs the fourth-generation family business, which still has its home on the very same farm where William made his cider. Maintaining the heritage of the family business remains close to Martin’s heart and now with the fifth generation joining the business, together they are proud to be carrying on the family traditions and making great cider sustainably. Thatchers is best known for its leading cider brands including Thatchers Gold and Thatchers Haze, sold throughout the UK and as far afield as Australia. The growth of its range of premium ciders continues to out-perform the market, with Thatchers now not only the UK’s number one family-owned cider maker in the UK, but also the UK’s second largest cider maker.
