Yorkshire Botanicals Limited

Yorkshire Botanicals is a specialist grower of glasshouse crops for the pharmaceutical industry. With sites in East Yorkshire and West Sussex, they offer a variety of placements, from hands-on agronomy tasks focused on crops and trials, to technical roles such as collecting and logging samples for analysis or preparing finished products.

While the overall growing process is similar to other horticultural businesses, they work to standards that differ from those used in food production, ensuring compliance with requirements for prescription medicines. Due to the nature of their products and customers, they do not operate a public website, but further information can be obtained through MDS colleagues or alumni.
