Neal's Yard Remedies is a British seller of organic natural health and beauty products. Founded in 1981 in Covent Garden, London, as of 2017 they have 59 stores across the UK. They company also sells its products in Canada, Japan and the USA. In 2009 the company launched a multi-level marketing operation in the UK and US.

The first Neal's Yard Remedies shop was opened in 1981 by Romy Fraser in Neal's Yard in Covent Garden. The shop offered dried herbs, homoeopathic products, essential oils, Bach flower remedies, and a range of toiletries based on herbs and essential oils.

In 1985 a small factory was opened in South London to meet increasing demand. In 1986 they opened two new shops and they have continued to grow. They now have 40 shops, 64 Therapy Rooms and 400 stockists in the UK, including department stores like John Lewis and Fenwicks, and can be found in branches of Boots and Waitrose.

In 2005 Neal's Yard Remedies head office moved from South London to a new purpose-built eco-factory facility at Peacemarsh, near Gillingham, Dorset. That same year Fraser sold the business to Peter Kindersley, former publisher and owner of Sheepdrove Organic Farm, for an undisclosed amount.

In 2007, Fraser was awarded an OBE in recognition for services to the health and beauty industry
