It will be Greggs鈥� second 鈥榮avoury manufacturing facility鈥� in the south of England and will support its expansion into wholesaling, selling through other retailers such as Iceland Foods and to NAAFI at a British military base in Germany.
It is looking for a suitable site.
In a stock exchange statement this morning, the company said: 鈥淭he significant expansion of our wholesaling business combined with the continued acceleration of new shop openings has brought forward our existing plans to build a second savoury manufacturing facility in the south of England.聽 We are now looking at potential sites and anticipate commencing construction in mid-2013.聽 This will be a 拢30-35 million investment over a two year period and will provide the capacity we need to fulfil the significant growth potential for the brand in wholesaling, franchising and new shop openings whilst also further reducing our logistical costs.鈥�
