Tell me more

On a mission to create the best granola available and make granola like no other.

After returning from a trip to the United States, I had tried some amazing granola products with incredible fruit and nut combinations that stood out to me. When I got back to the UK, I looked for products in line with this, but found there to be a gap in the market. So, I made it myself in 2014 ...and Rollagranola was born.

Making delicious granola without using a tonne of unhealthy ingredients was difficult, but after several trials and errors, I succeeded! A healthful, balanced, and, most importantly, delicious granola. Making handmade granola quickly evolved from a hobby to a business. My creations were so well received by the family that I decided to try my luck at the neighbourhood farmer's market. In 2016, a Gift Food Company saw Rollagranola at a market in Hackney, London, and presented an exciting opportunity. Enter The Nuthouse, formerly known as Rollagranola HQ, a facility in Hertfordshire with enough space to build on our brand's nutty innovations!

We now offer a distinctive line of savoury snack foods called Rollasnax, along with Vegan and Oat-Free Paleo granola. Our mission is to provide premium, all-natural products that are honest and filled with nuts, seeds, and fruit for a delicious energy boost. We are delighted with our growth to date and excited about the future as we continue to grow and innovate.
