Still thinking about Bermondsey Festival this time last month. Ten different flavours, trays and trays of buns, and a very busy kitchen making it all happen.

The croissant. Buttery, flaky, fresh every morning. The simple things, done right.

Comptoir is a family-run bakery. Always has been. And Redouan has been part of that family from the very beginning.

A croissant legend in his own right.

Meet the Makers: Bermondsey Gut Kimchi

Meet J-Min and Min, the two women behind Bermondsey Gut Kimchi, and one of our favourite people to work with. They make Seoul-style kimchi the traditional way: unpasteurised, naturally fermented, no added sugar, and just enough salt to let time do the rest.

Here’s the thing, neither of them planned any of this. They both came from the fashion world, working in editorial and design, and the kimchi started as something they made just for themselves. It was only when their colleagues tasted it and kept asking for more that they realised they might be onto something. “I wouldn’t think anyone would pay for it,” J-Min laughs. “But when our colleagues saw it, they immediately wanted to buy it.” Seven months later, with zero food industry experience between them, they became the first and only kimchi trader at Borough Market.

What keeps them going isn’t the business milestones, it’s the people. The regulars at their stall, the conversations, the customers who tell them, “I don’t like kimchi, but I like yours.” Two women who moved here with no connections, no food background, and built a community one market stall at a time.

At Comptoir, we’ve always believed our staff, our teams, and our suppliers are all part of one family. Stories like J-Min and Min’s are exactly why we started this series, because the people behind what we sell deserve to be known, not just the products themselves.

You can find their kimchi in our Kimchi Noodle Salad, every Wednesday, across our sites.

Prep is where it all comes together. Rolling, shaping, getting everything ready for the oven. Not the glamorous part, but it’s where the good stuff actually happens.

That’s a wrap on

What an incredible day it was, thank you to everyone who came through, tried our French pastries, grabbed a sweet or savoury bun from Buns & Bubbles, or kicked back with a pint and pizza in the park.

From the whole team at Comptoir, we’re so grateful. See you next year.
