For a truly royal experience, visit the following food and design businesses during a trip to Copenhagen, all suppliers to the Royal Danish Court. It’s no mean feat to be on this list.

Note that the predicate Royal Court Suppliers ceases after Queen Margaret’s abdication on January 14, 2024. The companies with the predicate Royal Court Supplier can use the title at least until January 15, 2025.

To become a Purveyor to Her Majesty, businesses must show an established record of being a supplier to the Court for many years. Today there are 100 Danish and 6 foreign holders of the Royal Warrant, of which these are just a selection.
