Allan Bennett started his career as a schoolboy helping the local butcher with deliveries by the butcher's bike. A long association with the Meat Industry had started. He joined Gills in 1953 and quickly rose through the ranks from shop floor to eventually become Managing Director of the Company.
He had a vision of buying meat from local markets and farms and producing everything that he sold - sausages, pies, bacon and black pudding. There however was one main drive within his vision and that was customer service was paramount. He bought Gill's 4 shops and a hugely successful business followed with his dream being fulfilled.
He joined the Q Guild in 1991 and to date he is the most successful of any of any of the Q Guild businesses in the Smithfield awards, accumulating over 160 Gold awards and several Diamond awards.
Allan still has the same enthusiasm now as when he started in the trade and, with the staff, concentrates all his efforts on his shop in Station Road Codsall.
Steven Bennett, Allan Bennett's son joined the business to learn the trade when he was 17 and has been working alongside his father ever since gaining knowedge and know how along the way.

SAY IT'S SUPERB
Wow! What can I say? Bennett & Dunn oil is banging!
In my business, we only use Bennett & Dunn cold pressed rapeseed oils. With there rich taste and smooth texture, they are a great alternative to using butter in sauces.
Bennett & Dunn offer a fantastic range of flavoured oils which can be used for salad dressing, protein marinades, mayonnaise’s or just to simply cook with. My personal preference is the horseradish oil.
So if you haven’t already and aren’t sure about buying some, take my advice, trust the reviews and add it to your kitchen! You won’t be disappointed.

FEAST
"flavour and versatility"
I have been using Bennett & Dunn for a few years now after Tracey came to see me with a sample to try, i was bowled over with the flavour and versatility of the oil aswell as the health benefits.
Its the only oil i use now both in work and at home.
The reason I love Bennet & Dunn Rapeseed Oil so much is the purity and depth of flavour,
This is a real British artisan product made with love by my good friends Rupert and Tracy, local to my restaurant CoM,
The nuttiness and slight sweetness of the oil translates into so many of my dishes, I use the oil in all applications from sweet to savoury, i use it as a finishing oil & replace the heavier fats such as butter with the oil, as I don’t use imported ingredients on my menu’s, the rapeseed oil is my olive oil replacement, & is vital to my ingredient repotoire’
They also produce a wonderful Oak Smoked verison which is featured on my menus aswell, mainly adding a cool dimension to our vegetarian tasting
