About us
The Oxford Cheese Company has been at the heart of Oxford since their shop first opened in Oxford’s Covered Market in 1983. The cheese shop was an instant hit at the time as there were very few specialist cheeses shops anywhere in Britain. In 1995, Baron Pouget began production of Oxford Blue initially to supply his Customers, University Colleges and City Restaurants. Word of mouth spread the cheese’s reputation and it was soon in demand throughout the south east of England. As part of our continued involvement at the Heart of Oxford, we have been sponsoring for some 10 years and continue to sponsor the Oxford University Women’s Lightweight Rowing Club and now also sponsor the Oxford University Lightweight Rowing Club and support Bike Oxford..
