OUR ‘TREAT YOURSELF WELL’ STORY
We’re two brothers on a mission to change the way people eat by creating Great Taste award-winning ice cream that doesn’t compromise our health or our planet.
In 2011 we decided to break a record for the longest distance travelled by kite power on land in Brazil. The buggies we used had no brakes and we had about two hours of kite experience between us.
It was like learning to swim by crossing the channel. We often had to drag our buggies over 30 miles through mangrove swamps, and subsequently ran out of food. This meant foraging for wild fruit and coconuts along the Brazilian coastline. These tasted amazing and were nutritious too.
That was the lightbulb moment.
Why couldn’t all food be like that? What if you could indulge in sweet treats, without having loads of sugar and nasty additives?
Upon our return, Charlie swapped his job for the kitchen and in 2014 (and 1,000 recipes later):
Health and indulgence collided. Oppo-sites attracted. The recipe was ready. Oppo was born.
In 2016 the brothers appeared on Dragons Den. 4 million viewers tuned in that night and while the dragons didn’t bite millions of others did. Since then we’ve expanded internationally and saved 827,000,000 KG of unnecessary sugar from people’s diets. Not bad for an “I’m out”!
We now have the strongest better-for-you lineup in the market with something for everyone. This coupled with our 10 Great Taste awards means you can Treat Yourself Well, Any Day with Oppo Brothers.
