Industry Partners

Ichi-go ichi-e

 This Japanese Kanji phrase perhaps most effectually denotes our core principles. The Sourdough School was founded on the clear purpose and personal mission of its founder, Vanessa Kimbell. Our reputation for uncompromising values when it comes to bread that nourishes is our most valuable asset. Known for inspiring with her open communication style, and about the need to support change, our approach is evidence-based and our superpower is our team’s ability to inspire and encourage positive disruption for constructive outcome.

What does together with our industry partners mean?

Working together means producing bread to support life. Bread that nourishes our gut microbiome, not just in terms of delivering calories and energy, but baking living breads that have been developed to optimise nourishment to our symbiotic gut microbial community and that has a positive impact on our bodies’ core systems.

It’s about healthy bread that is good for you. Bread that supports health, balances blood sugar, reduces bloating, helps manage your weight, supports gut health and most importantly improves your mood. In a nutshell, you could say that it’s simply about baking that makes you happier.We know that success is about working with partners whose business aligns with our core values. Over the past five years, we have carefully noted high standards of integrity and respect in Puratos’ working practices, relationships and responsibilities in producing sourdough. As a small and successful business, we operate as a social enterprise, and our currency is not money, but time and facilitating meaningful change. Whilst change involves challenging the bread-making industry, we have seen that time and time again

Our industry partners are is not just following this need for change but they are innovating and leading the way forward, and we encourage collaboration with our partnerships because our goals and values align and in that we can bring an extraordinary new bread-making system to the market together, to offer your customers a way to make bread that isn’t just delicious, but baking products that meaningfully impact people’s health and wellness positively.
