Bags of Success as Clementine of Broughty Ferry Celebrate Their 1st Birthday

Carole Sommerville and Jan McTaggart

This weekend, Jan McTaggart and Carole Sommerville, the co-owners of Clementine of Broughty Ferry, having been celebrating the first birthday of their business. It's just a year since they opened the doors at 103 Gray Street to the Ferry’s only independent greengrocer.


Jan and Carole are delighted with business and
acknowledge the loyal support that their customers have demonstrated over the last 12 months. 
One of the great successes of Clementine's has been ‘Soup in a Bag’ – everything you need to make the soup of the week, including the stock cubes (water not included). Jan and Carole have come up with more than 50 recipes and have sold nearly 10,000 bags over the course of the year.

Speaking at their shop earlier in the week, Jan said: ‘It’s been a great year and getting to know our customers has definitely been a highlight. They obviously appreciate the personal service we offer and they know that we keep our prices reasonable.’




Carole added: ‘And we’ve enjoyed great support from our local suppliers, it’s been really interesting to work with local farmers and wholesalers. We often get produce straight off the farm and that freshness makes such a difference to the quality and taste.’


So let's raise a soup spoon to salute an innovative retailer in the Ferry who deserve our continuing custom and their success!
