Bremner & Co work to make the food system fairer. We focus on improving food policy and practice so that people have access to good, nutritious, healthy food.
We are experts in food – education, systems, policy and economy. Our clients are governments, local authorities, charities, universities, NGOs, food systems organisations and the private sector.
The work that we do falls under four areas – food systems research, advocacy and partnership building, strategy and policy.

Our approach
Bremner & Co have a set of values and principles that guide everything that we do. Our purpose is to make the food system fairer for everyone.
People & Process
We understand that winning hearts and minds is critical to any well laid plan. We believe the best work is done in collaboration, bringing people and process together to make change.
Integrity
Whether behind the scenes or leading the change, we are honest, transparent, approachable and trusted. We listen to what is being said and, importantly, how it is being said. We go to great lengths to ensure what we say is grounded in evidence.
Optimism
At Bremner & Co, we think that pragmatic, successful solutions can always be found, even if gaining consensus can be hard. Our optimism drives us to find solutions to complex problems. We bring people with us on the journey.
Knowledgeable
We like to be nerdy and relish getting stuck into research data and evidence. We are great at poking at things and ‘lifting the lid’ to understand them better. We take reams of data and draw out meaningful insights.
Transformation
We do what we do to change the food system for the better. We help you set your vision for transformation, manage the trade-offs, create a plan of action, collaborate effectively and evaluate well.
