About Hunter & Gather

Hunter & Gather are a multi award-winning, ancestrally inspired lifestyle brand.

We believe the conventional modern lifestyle is failing people. With poor mental health and chronic illness touching almost every household, it’s clear - it doesn’t have to be this way.

That’s where we come in.

At Hunter & Gather, we fuse ancestral wisdom with modern science to empower people to thrive. From real food and supplements - always free from refined sugar, grains, and inflammatory seed oils - to a warm, welcoming tribe and a wealth of accessible education, everything we do is designed to help people reclaim their health, one informed choice at a time.

The business is in an exciting phase of development with growth across its team, product range, sales channels and territories all expanding. There is a continued ambitious yet disciplined growth forecast, with plans to scale to £50m+ revenue within the next 3 years, having achieved a 2-year CAGR of 76% since 2023.
