The brand was founded in 2019 by Neil Rankin, a Scottish chef and trained butcher who set out to prove that vegetables could deliver deep, satisfying flavour using time and technique rather than ultra-processing. Alongside co-founders and restaurateurs Alan and Mark Wogan, he built a brand that first earned its reputation in some of the UK's most discerning professional kitchens, supplying the likes of Dishoom and Gordon Ramsay's restaurants before making its retail debut at Waitrose in 2026.
Symplicity Foods is one of the carefully selected brands in the Saporia range, chosen for its commitment to quality, flavour and honest ingredients. Whether you are discovering Symplicity Foods for the first time or stocking up on a firm favourite, Vegetable Nduja is a brilliant example of what the brand does best.
