I strongly advise anyone considering working with Peckwater Brands to think twice before entering into any agreement with them. My experience with this company has been nothing short of a nightmare due to their unethical practices, lack of transparency, and outright breaches of contract. 1. Misrepresentation of Profitability Peckwater Brands promised a 20% net profit during onboarding, claiming I would achieve weekly sales of £2,000 and a net profit of £600. These projections were entirely false. Their pricing model deducts 45% + VAT from sales, leaving me to cover all additional costs for stock, packaging, and supplies. It is mathematically impossible to achieve the profits they promised. 2. Lack of Financial Transparency Peckwater Brands repeatedly failed to provide me with financial statements or invoices. Despite their claims of sending bi-weekly statements, I never received them, and they were not available on their partner portal either. When I requested these statements, I was ignored for months, leaving me in the dark about the deductions made from my sales. 3. Failure to Deliver Promised Services The company promised key support services, including: • An account manager to assist with operations. • A second menu stack (Korean stack) within two weeks of launching the Mexican stack. Neither of these promises was fulfilled. Instead, their staff members (including my assigned account manager) left the company, leaving me with no support. My emails and messages went unanswered, and I was left to manage everything on my own. 4. Customer Refunds at My Expense Peckwater Brands processed refunds for customers without consulting me and deducted these amounts from my earnings. This practice is highly unethical and has further added to my financial losses. 5. Unresponsive Customer Support Their customer support team is practically nonexistent. I sent multiple emails and messages via their portal, none of which received a response. This lack of communication is completely unacceptable for a company that claims to support its partners. Conclusion Peckwater Brands has caused significant financial harm to my business and operates in a manner that I would describe as fraudulent. They fail to deliver on their promises, provide no transparency, and leave their partners to fend for themselves after collecting onboarding fees and deductions. Avoid this company at all costs if you value your time, money, and sanity.

If these guys have approached you don't fall for it. They'll promise you revenue and support but once you're setup and paid their fees, they go awol. We're missing payments and neither the account manager or anyone is willing to speak on the phone. Callbacks state 5-10 working days but we have been waiting over a month. There are plenty of vitirual kitchen brands out there, choose wisely because PWB have been atrocious.

After they take your £500 to start the brands they do they start playing games and don’t give you the brands they promised you in the beginning.. basically they promise you the world before you pay the £500 and as soon as they got the money there is a different face.. STAY AWAY FROM THEM.

They will first lure you in with ok brands, and will try to put pressure on you to meet deadlines for delivery etc. however after trading just over 4 months with their brands Peckwater tried to change the contract I have with them under the disguise of “commercial restructuring “ and when my original contract is 35+ vat payable to Peckwater as a commission, under this new so called restructuring only 22% commission payable to businesses. They think we are stupid, ignorant and desperate. I switched off their brands and refused to accept any orders. Furthermore they promise to pay the VAT on the sales. This is borderline illegal, anything comes out of your kitchen/ business premises you are legally responsible for payment of vat, so if they default or not pay it at all then HMRC will come after you. They already have a track record of paying late our money so how can you trust such a company. So I stopped taking orders from their brands and if they try to switch you over to new “commercial structure “ do not agree. Don’t be desperate you will have much bigger problems later on. They need to realise one thing, without us they are nothing, they don’t have any business. Stand your ground, take legal and financial advice. According to the advice I received I have a ground for legal action to seek damages for the rest of my contract commission payable to me 65%. Don’t be fooled by t try heir promises that you will be better off. They want to make even more money on back of you from wholesale goods that you have to buy via their platform which is already 20% higher than even most expensive wholesalers prices. I gave them My legal notice so follow my example and don’t agree, they will have to back off or risk loosing decent businesses that is earning them commission without doing anything. If you are really concerned about lost revenue try other virtual brand companies. There are very good one

Would not recommend to partner up with. Unorganised and misleading. After discussing the brand and appliances needed and quickly getting signed on later they add more appliances which you have considered or unable to fit in kitchen. First stock meant to be around 880 but was over 1300. They clearly are new and don't know what they are doing.

This company takes £1000 of your hard earned money without site inspection or considering health & safety Regulations. They don't care either you make money or not. They include preparation for 14 minutes in the contract but when you start operating they force you to prepare the orders between 3 to 10 minutes. Their system sends drivers as soon as a driver is available. You don't have the control of when the order is ready. This is SCAM. AVOID wasting your £1000.

I end up losing a lot of money with this company, everything they told me was a lie. There is no customer service. Nobody to hear your problems. Nobody to reply your emails. It is a complete frustration.

We dealt with this company recently to become franchisee / Using there platforms to get extra sales. Day one start problem due to luck of their staff management they have no clue what to do. Every day new staff join with no clue they should train there own staffs before putting them on duty. The company is keep promising to their investors to get funding in reality doing nothing just giving there ideas without having internal training for their own staff. If you want to modern slavery work…give them a try as they rob you before others thieves such as Uber Eats, Deliveroo or Just Eat Go direct to delivery platforms at least ripped of by Food Delivery companies not paying for middle man as Peckwater Brands then bagging for your money for weeks or months Stay away from legitimate daytime robbery Good Luck if you already joined before reading this comment.
