welcome to our


Our small market town of Tring in Hertfordshire has a fantastic brewery producing some great beer and a great selection of pubs in the Town and surrounding area to enjoy drinking it in. So we had a thought - “Why not also have some ‘Tring themed’ ‘hand cooked’ crisps to snack on while you enjoy your pint?” And so the idea of producing Stripes Hand Cooked Crisps was born.


The inspiration behind the eye-catching ‘stripes’ branding came about after discovering and reading an article about Baron Walter Rothschild using tamed zebras to pull a carriage around Tring and the surrounding area over 100 years ago.

Stay up to date with the latest news on our 'Tring Crisps Campaign'

* indicates required




In order to make our 'Tring themed' crisps a reality in the early part of 2016, we intend to raise the finance involved using Crowdfunding. As the Crowdfunding campaign will only run for a maximum of 8 weeks, we are seeking to raise as much awareness as we can before our campaign starts through selected advertising and social media. Please visit our Facebook and Twitter pages and 'like' and 'follow', using the links below - The more interest shown at these early stages will help us to develop the project further, and hopefully make our crowdfunding campaign a success by reaching our target! Please feel free to email us a message or provide some feedback.

We would also like your help (meaning we want to do a bit of 'market research'!) by asking you to vote for your favourite flavour of crisps. Please place your vote(s) by clicking on the boxes, right (You can vote for more than one flavour...)

You can make a pledge or comment by visiting our Crowdfunding campaign from the link below...

A Rothschild Equipage. - A very interesting zoological experiment has recently been carried out in Buckinghamshire by the Hon. Walter Rothschild, son of Lord Rothschild. It is the training and driving of a four-in-hand team of zebras, generally regarded as among the most intractable of all animals. Mr. Rothschild takes special interest in this strangely striped steed, and has made a study of its nature and needs. In his museum (in Tring) he has several stuffed specimens, including one brought from Mashonaland by that mighty hunter, Mr. F. C. Selous. There are several breeds of zebra, and that known as Burchell’s has been selected by Mr. Rothschild for his team, because it is more horse-like and has better draught power than the mountain variety. A number of them were imported by him, and, after a long course of training and taming, he is able to drive them four-in-hand. He has astonished the quiet country folk round the seat of the family with his circus-like turn-out, and at the Tring Agricultural Show the other week his team was the sensation of the day. His zebras are groomed, shod, and fed in the same manner as horses, and they are capital goers in harness. The Rothschild family are a very powerful social force in Buckinghamshire.
