The first UK Food and Drink Entrepreneur Forum will take place in London this month, and four start-ups will have the coveted chance to present their products to a panel of retailers.

Planned for November 27th, the event has been dubbed The Lion’s Den, after the TV show.

The selected companies are:

 

Grumpy Mule, which brings a new range of single origin coffees; Munchy Seeds, a maker of premium, healthy seed based snacks; The Cake Bake Company, which made the car-shaped cake featured in the Skoda ad; and Three Counties Gourmet, which has a new mixer for cocktails and non-alcoholic drinks and smoothies.

 

The panel line up includes representatives from Waitrose, Starbucks Coffee, and The Co-operative Group.
