I’m so excited to share that Forbes has named me one of its 30 Under 30 entrepreneurs for my work on Humble Crumble. As a kid, I dreamed about what I wanted for my future. I’d lie on my bed, and in my mind, I’d make a vision board on the ceiling. The main thing on my board was being part of the ‘Forbes 30 Under 30’ List. I’m not entirely sure why it was an ambition of mine, but I guess when you’re dreaming, you think that anything is possible. I have to say, I never actually thought I’d make the list. I’m pretty scattered, not very confident in my communication skills, and naturally shy. All the things that I thought an entrepreneur wasn’t. But I had an ambitious idea - to start the world’s first crumble bakery. That idea has been one big rollercoaster and during the first two years of the business and a pandemic, I thought many times about closing it down. However, I didn’t close, and I decided to continue on. That’s when most of you on this platform found out about Humble Crumble and decided to support my business - which I am so grateful for. I’ve also had so much help with the business - especially my team. I tell you that moving from a 2x2m stall in Old Spitalfields Market to three fully-fledged bakeries (and a fourth on the way) within four years has been challenging (but also so rewarding). This isn’t something that I’ve achieved on my own, so thank you again from the bottom of my heart for making my childhood dream come true and big thank you especially to my partner and HC’s Commercial Director Gabriel Unger, HC’s first employee & now Head of Ops Lucy Thomas our Social Media Manager Chloe Fagence, all the Managers of our bakeries and the team as a whole. Humble Crumble is a collection of wonderful minds and hearts coming together to learn, innovate and have fun. Together, we have grown this idea into a successful business. https://lnkd.in/ePkyq_jH

We are delighted to share this podcast recording honouring International Women’s Day. Rebecca Wardle leads a conversation with three incredible business founders and members of BUY WOMEN BUILT, a movement championing female entrepreneurs and striving for a more equitable economy. This #InternationalWomensDay, we embrace the theme 'Inspire Inclusion' advocating for women’s economic empowerment and leadership. As proud legal partners of Buy Women Built, we’re thrilled to support over 700 women-owned brands that are revolutionising industries and positively impacting society. Despite the strides made, female entrepreneurship remains significantly underrepresented. In the UK, only 6% of women embark on entrepreneurship, lagging behind countries like Canada and the USA. Addressing this gap could contribute an astounding £200bn to the economy. Meet our inspiring panellists: • Kim Innes, the pioneer of Humble Crumble, the world's first crumble bakery, a place dedicated to the British dessert, the crumble. • Isabella Howe, the innovator of The Flat Lay Co., a revolutionary makeup bag that opens flat and closes in seconds, saving you time and hassle. • Karen Cummings-Palmer, the creator of 79 Luxe Skincare, an award-winning collection of intentional body care We delved into their entrepreneurial story and what they think the future looks like for women founders and entrepreneurs.

It's hard to stay humble about this one... and even harder not to groan at that pun. Viral sensations Humble Crumble have taken a step towards the nutty side with their latest topping addition this January. Spoiler alert - it's us! This month, crumble conoisseurs can finish their dream desserts with a generous drizzle of our award-winning Smooth Almond Butter. Available at all three Humble Crumble locations, we can't wait for our tags to be filled with snaps of some perfectly Pip & Nut-ified puddings. As you can imagine, it's been a tough week for the team as we were forced to head to our local Humble Crumble for vital quality control checks aka mass crumble consumption. In case you were worried, we can confirm these bowls of heaven are simply divine topped with our silky smooth nut butter. Make sure you head to our Instagram where ourselves and Humble Crumble are celebrating our collab by each giving away a £100 voucher for each of our stores, to one lucky winner! Good luck ⭐https://lnkd.in/d4rxHFX8 Thanks to Kim Innes and the entire Humble Crumble team, in particular Chloe Fagence and Ruby Connolly.

Humble Crumble 🥧 A food stall that started from humble beginnings, today is the world’s first crumble bakery and a multi-million pound business with permanent fixtures in Old Spitalfields Market and Borough Market. With more than 500,000 crumbles served in the last three years, Humble Crumble has struck a chord with passionate crumble-loving foodies and has no signs of slowing down, with two new sites set to open in London’s gastronomic hotspots Camden Market and Covent Garden this year. Kim Innes founded Humble Crumble in 2018, but it wasn’t until October 2020 when things took a pivotal turn for her business. With Halloween in sight, Kim produced a moment of magic; introducing the famous Pumpkin-Spiced Crumble, which will forever be recognised as what thrust Humble Crumble into the limelight, making people aware that a crumble bakery existed. The special dessert gleaned viral attention following an Instagram post from Time Out Group plc, and then by a TikTok video from a customer. Although London was in a lockdown, the queues simply wouldn’t surrender for Humble Crumble, and the ever-growing demand for the perfect British grab-and-go crumble continues. The podcast is now ready for you to listen to: Apple: https://lnkd.in/ed3Xc4zM Spotify: https://lnkd.in/e9TVs9jz #humblecrumble #kiminnes #founder #startupstartnow #podcast #britishfounder #entrepreneur #crumble

Exciting update!

Kudos to Kim Innes for steering the ship with unwavering core values. The people culture and support network at Humble Crumble are truly exceptional. 🫶 Our created induction/training process is the secret ingredient behind a steady and successful future expansion. #HumbleCrumble #EmployeeDevelopment #businessmanagement #traininganddevelopment

It’s crazy how far this business has come. I talked about the idea for years before doing anything with it and even after doing something it took years to become successful. Being in this video is simply not possible without my team, it’s taken the collective hard work and intelligence of many people to get to this point and I’m so grateful to each and every one of them. Success in the future is not guaranteed but I’m excited for the next steps in our journey.
