Eight Generations And Counting...
Our story began in 1912, when MCF founder FWP (Frederick) Matthews built a mill on the river Evenlode.
To this day, overlooking the picturesque Cotswold village of Shipton-Under-Wychwood, you can find us hard at work in our ancestral home. It’s where we mill, pack, and ship every order directly to your door.
The company is led by seventh and eighth generation father and son team – Paul and Bertie Matthews – FWP Matthews’ great-great-grandson and great-great-great-grandson (respectively).
