About us
Founded in 2001, Humdingers mission was to deliver a range of natural snacks with a difference. The demand for innovative snacks by far exceeded expectations and as a result Humdinger has developed and grown, expanding its portfolio of products and building a reputation for quality and product innovation. In 2013, the business was acquired by Zertus to help drive continued growth. Now operating across two locations in the UK, Humdinger manufacture a core range of value-added snacks, which include dried fruits, seeds and nuts. In addition to manufacturing private label products for the UK food retailers, Humdinger have also supplied premium snack solutions for many famous food brands such as Budweiser, Guinness, Ocean Spray, Marmite and Vimto. Their own range of brands includes The Fruit Factory, The Sun Valley Nut Company, Yum and Yay and Humzingers. The business has two outstandingly equipped production sites and one functional storage unit in which a total of some 450 people are employed. A large part of the savoury snacks are produced in Heckington in Lincolnshire, which is where Humdinger is able to achieve the full spectrum of different flavours by roasting, deep-frying and coating. The Bromborough site processes over 23,000 tonnes per year and is a supplier of high-quality peanut and nut-based products through the retail customer own brands, Food Service and ingredient channels as well as nuts, peanut butters and crisps under its own The Sun Valley Nut Co and Nuts For brands. In addition, in 2021 Bromborough launched a peanut butter for dogs following the launch of anumber of customer brands into this growing pet-snacking market. “Pawnutts” is proud to sponsor a “Dogs for Good” support dog through training, aptly named “Peanuts” The breadth of the operational capacity gives Humdinger the ability to offer flexibility and choice to their customers. This coupled with innovation, breadth of range and product quality, makes Humdinger a leader in their category.

🌍 World Suicide Prevention Day 🌍 In recognition of World Suicide Prevention Day, our Heckington site organised Mental Health Drop-In Sessions to support the well-being of our valued employees. The sessions provided a welcoming space for staff to unwind, engage in meaningful conversations, and access important mental health resources. With tea, biscuits, relaxing activities like coloring, and informative leaflets, we aimed to foster a supportive environment that encourages open dialogue around mental health. At Humdinger, we believe that mental well-being is a key part of overall health, and we’re committed to ensuring our team feels supported and heard. Let’s continue to support around mental health by providing spaces where people feel safe to talk and connect. Thank you Molly McElligott for hosting these sessions! #WorldSuicidePreventionDay #MentalHealthMatters #WorkplaceWellness #EmployeeSupport

Today marks World Suicide Prevention Day. At Zertus UK & Ireland, Humdinger, Kinnerton Confectionery and Lir Chocolates, we are raising awareness and encouraging open conversations about mental health. This year's theme, ‘Changing the Narrative on Suicide,’ reminds us of the power of empathy and connection. By starting the conversation, we can help break the silence and create a culture of understanding and support. Across our sites we are encouraging the simple acts of checking in with one another, staying informed, and advocating for mental health together, as well as sharing support tools through GroceryAid and Paycare. #WorldSuicidePreventionDay #MentalHealthMatters #StartTheConversation
