A Very Merry KERBmas

As KERB celebrates a decade in the capital, we wanted to look back at the era in London food that we sprung up out of - how it has evolved since then, and how we, as a community and a business, have shifted with it. 

This KERB LIFE special is a 3 part series to mark a decade of KERB and a decade of huge change in London food.

Covering the wave of change following the crash of 2008, fuelled by recession, social media and a mass of people going ‘screw this, I’m off to do my own thing’ a raft of new flavours and experiences were suddenly out there on the streets and Londoners couldn’t get enough of it.

The series charts this time and then, how we as a business - and a community of food entrepreneurs - navigated these tides of change, going from the wild abandon of start-up energy to figuring out how to make money out of it, how to keep it good while big business piled in - through opening a food hall, being knee-capped by Covid and now, how we cope with the headwind of a ravaged hospitality industry.

Expect lots of opinions, reflections, characters - and a plunge into London food from a kerbside view.
