We pride ourselves on supplying wholesalers and national accounts across the UK with delicious, simple bread done right. We follow a simple approach to baking that combines traditional techniques with modern food trends to produce exceptional breads and sweet bakery products.
Many of our bestselling products are hand-crafted to preserve the art of real bread making. All our breads contain the finest ingredients. Our wheat flour is from family-owned millers, while our rapeseed oil is sourced locally. Both these key ingredients come from Red Tractor accredited farms to support British farmers.
See Our Baked BreadsInnovation and creativity are at the heart of our business and having the freedom to create almost whatever we want is what gets us out of bed in the morning.
While we focus our time and energy on making the best bread, sweet treats and frozen doughs we can, we also focus on making our products as delicious and accessible as possible. This is why in 2019 we removed all nuts from our bakeries. The following year we replaced all sesame seeds with linseeds, a tasty alternative that still gives a bun that classic seeded look. We want to go further though and believe plant-based is the future. By 2024 we’ll have a plant-based version for every product we sell, so all our products will be suitable for vegans all the way to meat-eaters.
We take bread making very seriously but ourselves less so. We run a very relaxed office and you won’t find anyone wearing a suit. Many of our team have worked here from day one and that’s testament to the very friendly family atmosphere. When we say we’re a family we really mean it. We have several generations of various families working in different departments within the business. We think it’s a great place to work and we love to show off our bakery to those customers who are kind enough to pop down and visit us in sunny Margate.

In 2022 we worked with a team from Normative to calculate our carbon footprint, setting us off on the journey to go Net Zero by 2030. There are several ways we are planning to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions including: switching to renewable energy and electric ovens, using heat recovery technology to heat our offices, introducing an entirely electric company car fleet and going fully plant-based. Once we’ve gone fully plant-based our total eq emissions will reduce by 18%, a huge chunk of our emissions. These changes together, along with our other plans, will make a significant impact.
How to buyBecause our entire organisation operates to the BRC Global Standard, striving for excellence in every direction, our end products are as good as they possibly can be… completely and totally delicious!
