North East seed business hoping for growth after supermarket deal

A North East family business has landed a contract with a supermarket chain that will see its product sold in almost 150 stores throughout the UK.

Grow Sow Simple, which is based in Tyne Tunnel Trading Estate in North Tyneside, has secured a deal to supply its biodegradable and plastic-free seed pod boxes to Asda stores nationwide.

The boxes contain seeds that can be planted direct into the soil or plant pots. The pod protects the seeds as they begin to germinate, before breaking down naturally in the soil, leaving no waste.
