Cornish Country Larder (CCL) is a specialty dairy manufacturer located near Newquay. Established in 1996 by farmers John Gaylard and Neil Walker, the company produces a variety of quality cheeses at its 17,000 sq ft factory, including Cornish Brie and Goats Cheddar.

CCL currently employs 48 people, all recruited locally and trained in-house, whilst its clients include major UK retailers such as Tesco, Waitrose and Sainsbury's.

CCL has seen its annual turnover double each year since 1996 - in 2003 it reached over £3.5 million. Growing demand for their products has now encouraged them to open a second factory in Somerset, as well as start expanding the business further in Cornwall.
