About Us
Small Batch was founded in 2014 by husband and wife dream-team, William and Holly Plant, with William specialising in the visually creative and Holly as the eloquent wordsmith. Chloe Roberts joined Small Batch in 2018 as a Project Manager and SEO consultant. Sadly, Holly passed away in 2019 after a 2 year long battle with cancer though we miss her every day, Small Batch continues with the same values originally set out by Holly and William. We still love working with SME’s and continue to provide creative digital services to the hospitality, retail and leisure trades.
