Alan Romans

[NicolasBirbank]

Hello everyone! Im fairly new to potato growing (this is my second season) and the company I usually buy my seed from (Alan Romans) no longer exists and just goes to another site that charges twice as much! Can anyone shed some light on this? Has Alan Romans been bought out? I had a great crop this year

This says shut for stocktaking maybe wait a little while to see if they restock?

Hello.

His old address, which I had saved in my bookmarks ( Buy Seed Potatoes UK - Order Seed Potatoes Online | Thompson & Morgan ), is now some other company. He has also dropped off google search results.

Where's the best place to go now then?

On the .co.uk it says:

You can still contact us at admin@alanromans.com if you have any questions about your order.
In the mean time, enjoy the summer and I hope you return to my site when we re-open in the Autumn.

I'd drop them an email...
