W.G. Buchanan & Son
A product-led WordPress website for a fifth-generation Northern Ireland food business serving retail, catering and foodservice customers.
The opportunity
Bringing a substantial product range and more than 150 years of experience into one clear website.
W.G. Buchanan & Son is a family-owned and operated business that has sourced and supplied natural whole foods since 1871. Its range spans rice, cereals and pulses, dried fruit, culinary nuts, cherries and peel, cake decorations and seeds for retail and foodservice customers.
The website needed to make that range easy to explore while reflecting the scale and heritage of the company behind it. Product information had to serve different customer groups without turning the experience into a dense catalogue.
The opportunity was to create a more structured digital presence that joined product discovery, recipes, company credentials and direct enquiries.
Strategy
Organise the range around customer needs while keeping the Buchanan name and history visible.
Structured product families
Create a repeatable system for presenting varied whole-food categories without losing consistency.
Heritage with substance
Support the established brand story with facilities, sourcing, operations and practical company information.
