Chefs & Purchasing Managers
Two Hands brings to chefs & purchasing managers:
Restoring the kinship driving great food
There is something primal in the bond between a farmer and a chef. Both are in the business of nourishing society. Both understand great food is not manufactured, but grown, tended, caught and cared for. When that relationship works, it nourishes body and soul.
That kinship has been lost with industrialised food production – farmers have become faceless and their regions invisible. It has just been made fragile by distance, intermediaries and a supply chain that was never designed with it in mind.
Two Hands is built to restore producer-chef kinship — at scale.

Where we start and where we're going
Following the initial validation of our existing tech and model in the UK, Two Hands is leading a consortium of six commercially operating companies, each providing expertise in the measurement, verification and reporting of farm-level data: soil health, biodiversity, nutrient-density, life-cycle analysis, etc. Their data will be loaded and validated on our platform with each product sale.
For institutional purchasing managers, this opens something new. Today it is not realistic for group operations to connect individual outlets with individual producers. Two Hands changes that. Each restaurant, pub, hotel or hospital within a group can build its own direct relationship with a farmer or fisherman — with the producer’s story, sustainable practices and verified credentials flowing through to that outlet’s kitchen and tables, authenticated from source.
The marketplace
The Two Hands marketplace is where chefs and purchasing managers discover, choose and order from producers they can now know.
Browse by food category, region or producer
Search live inventory by what you need, where you want it from, or who you want it from. Every listing is a real producer with a verified record.
Drill down to the producer’s sacred story
Behind every product is a farmer or fisherman with a story worth knowing. Their land, practices, region, sustainability credentials — all authenticated and available before you place your first order
Order with confidence
Place your order through the marketplace and Two Hands’ reengineered supply chain delivers on your confirmed timing.
What arrives with every delivery
Scan the QR code and you see: the farmer/fisherman's sacred story, the region, full chain of custody, sustainability credentials, and nutrient density of the specific produce on your plate. All data is authenticated from source, with every change of custody permanently recorded.


For your guests
Pass the QR code to diners and let them discover the story behind their meal themselves — the producer, region, journey from farm to plate. A richer dining experience no amount of menu copy can replicate.
For your front of house team
Use the authenticated record to train table stewards with facts. Your team can tell a guest exactly where their seafood was caught and how – exactly how the cow was raised and the farm’s nature and nutrient density benefits.
For your head office
Every portion contributes to real-time, authenticated scope 3 ESG data — aggregated at institutional level, regulatory-compliant and auditable. No modelling. No consulting reports. Verified truth, delivered by the supply chain itself.
Scan it and you see: the specific farm or fishing vessel, the region, the full chain of custody, the sustainability credentials, and the nutrient density of the specific produce on your diner's plate. That data is authenticated from source, with every change of custody.
The proof chefs have always wanted

The healthier the soil, the healthier the food. The best chefs know this.
But industrialised food production has focused on price and volume ahead of healthy soils delivering nutritious produce. The result is the dumbing down of our food. This has been allowed to happen because the information to incentivise better choices haven’t been available.
Two Hands is changing this.
Through the Two Hands led consortium, we report the nutrient density of each farm’s produce and benchmark it against an industry average for that produce. For the first time, you will be able to prove this to your diners and stakeholders. Farm by farm. Produce by produce. Authenticated. It transforms a conviction into a proof point — for your front of house, suppliers, stakeholders and the people sitting at your tables.
Does this food do good?
Chefs, purchasing managers and diners increasingly want to know not just where their food comes from, but what it does. Does it have a positive impact on nature? Is the farmer making adequate returns? Are there any trace elements of toxins in the food? Is the fisherman fishing in a way that leaves the future in a better place?
These questions define whether the food chain you are part of is one you can be proud of.
Two Hands and our consortium partners are building the answer — starting with soil carbon, greenhouse gas emissions, biodiversity and produce nutrient density. Measuring nature’s full account will be delivered step-by-step. We are building the authenticated data infrastructure to make it possible.
Chefs lead. Society follows.
Chefs have always been at the forefront of food culture. The ingredients they champion, the producers they choose, the standards they set — these decisions ripple outward. They shape what consumers expect, what farmers are rewarded for growing, and what the food system becomes.
Food systems are responsible for up to 30% of global greenhouse gas emissions and are the leading cause of biodiversity loss. The chefs and purchasing managers who choose to source differently are exercising the influence that has always defined great cooking. Now that influence can be measured, authenticated and proved.
For the first time, chefs sourcing beef can do so with authenticated proof those farms are, or on the path to, operating beyond net zero. Not an offset or inset. Not a claim. Proof — delivered to you, portion by portion.
As noted on our Farmers & Fishermen web page, evidence from Northern Ireland’s ARCZero programme demonstrate livestock farms can operate beyond net zero. Two Hands leads a consortium of six companies — each with deep expertise and commercial experience in soil and biodiversity measurement and produce nutrient density reporting — to pilot this and then replicate at scale.

What chefs say
“At Hazel we purchase through Two Hands because they give us access to the freshest, highest quality seafood available. The transparency and supply-chain traceability that Two Hands provides gives us confidence that we are purchasing fresh, local, seasonal and sustainable products. We love the additional information we get about the fishers themselves, and value the ability to support them directly. We also keep the QR codes from every delivery — they’re a great tool for our front of house staff and our guests dig them too!”
— Oliver Edwards, Sous Chef, and Brianna Smith, Head Chef, Hazel Restaurant (The Mulberry Group)
