Canny telly farmer Kaleb Cooper has set up a shop to rival boss Jeremy Clarkson’s. Jezza’s Clarkson Farm co-star has launched his own range of branded clothing. His Kaleb Cooper Contracting website flogs merchandise bearing his smart ‘KC’ logo including rugby shirts, shorts and hoodies. It also sells branded leather keyrings, bookmarks, beanies and caps. Some products rival those Clarkson flogs in his Diddly Squat Farm Shop. Unlike Clarkson, 65, Kaleb also offers a range of meat products including BBQ boxes. His fresh produce includes lamb and mint sausages, lamb steaks and chops, minced beef, matured fillet steak, rump, rib eye and sirloin steaks and Aberdeen Angus beef burgers. Kaleb, 27, charges £18 for an 8oz fillet steak while two burgers are a fiver. He is now a household name in his own right and has set up two companies to take in cash from his new enterprises in the Cotswolds. Kaleb tells buyers: “Welcome to Cooper Livestock Ltd where quality, local meat comes straight from our farm and onto your fork. We’re a family-run farm in Chipping Norton, passionate about producing home-reared beef, lamb, and pork. “From field to fork everything we sell is raised with care and butchered locally to ensure the best quality and flavour. All our cows are reared right here on our farm, ensuring full traceability, care, and quality from pasture to plate. “Expertly prepared and naturally flavourful, our meats offer freshness you can taste in every cut.” Clarkson’s store sells branded hoodies, caps, bucket hats, jumpers, cufflinks - and his famous ‘I am a f***er’ t-shirts. His grub is mainly jams, spreads, chutneys and seasonings. While he also sells his own booze range including Hawkstone lager and cider, ‘Bee Juice’ whisky, rum, gin, vodka, tequila and cocktails. A telly insider said: “While there is a cross-over with some products the two ‘shops’ offer different things and complement each other. I’m sure that won’t stop the pair of them squabbling over sold the most hoodies last week.” Speaking on the weekend, broadcaster Jeremy claimed that litterbugs should be shot. He said people who dump sweet wrappers and drink cans were at the “top” of his “hate list”. Although he said he was not a believer in the death penalty, he added that he would “make an exception” for people “who can’t be bothered to find a bin”. Have you joined Threads?
