• Stuart 'Head Fryer' Franklin

    This is Stuart, the brains behind Proper Crisps.
    When Stuart isn't thinking about potatoes, he is probably peeling them!

    He lives and breathes Proper Crisps, and bringing you the healthiest, tastiest crisps is his goal.

  • Kathryn 'Tater Technician' Franklin

    Now, Stuart thinks he is the brains behind Proper Crisps, but what he doesn't know, is he is being carefully manipulated into thinking he is the brains by none other than his lovely Missus - Kathryn.
    You know what they say, behind every great man there is a great woman! So, if ever you wanted to discuss the finer points of mononucleotides, or nucleides consisting of one molecule each of a phosphoric acid, a sugar, and either a purine or a pyrimidine base, then Kathryn is the lass to talk to.

  • Larry 'The Fixer' Williamson

    An Engineer by trade, Larry is the Proper Crisps own Mister Fix-it,
    which comes in very handy when our ageing temperamental kettle decides to throw a wobbly.

  • Together

    What it all comes down to, is we think we are a great team.
    This potato roller coaster is heaps of fun, and what makes it all worthwhile is we are making some of the best crisps we have ever tasted.

    So where are yours?

Our Team

Stuart
stuart-holdingStuart is the driving force behind Proper Crisps having seen the light whilst working for a corporate “chip” company. Stuart is proud of the dubious honour of having eaten crisps on every continent on Earth (except Antarctica – yet!).

He reckons this makes him a crisp connoisseur, just don’t ask to see his crisp packet collection!

Kathryn
kathrynsmallKathryn is the detail person in the team.

She’s the one that knows all the fancy science stuff having spent 14 years as a Food Technologist. She also claims to have the most highly developed tastebuds which come in handy for quality control.

We thought she was taking it a bit far though when she started matching the crisps with Nelson wines and boutique beers!

Larry
larrysmallLarry likes listening to reggae music whilst stirring the crisps, you should watch him go when Bob Marley’s “Stir it up” comes on his playlist!

When not frying crisps, Larry likes to have a “project” on the go.  He is currently working on a process to turn our potato peelings into compost so that we can use it in our home orchard – Go Larry!
