In Conversation with Emma Thackray, Founder of Hip Pop

Emma Thackray is the co-founder of Hip Pop, a gut-friendly drinks brand challenging the soft-drink industry. What began in her kitchen in 2019 as small-batch kombucha made with real fruit and live cultures has grown into a nationally stocked brand known for bold flavour and honest ingredients.  In this talk, Emma shares how curiosity, purpose, and a belief that drinks should “taste good and do good” helped turn a homemade experiment into a fast-growing business. She’ll explore building a values-led brand, disrupting sugar-heavy categories, and trusting your instincts when starting small.This event is a part of A Taste of Altrincham, and you can book via Eventbrite.
