UK-based speciality breads, Danish pastries and tarts producer Giles Foods has expanded its bakery in Milton Keynes. Following investment of £3.5m, Giles Foods has doubled the size of the bakery and installed new plant and equipment, including a technologically advanced three-deck oven, the first of its kind in the UK.
In addition to expanding capacity, the investment project is designed to allow Giles Foods to improve product quality and increase efficiency and flexibility while reducing input costs and the company’s carbon footprint.
The site has been extended by 45,000 sq ft under the first phase of an expansion programme, with additional cold store and upgraded logistics and distribution facilities due to come on stream next year.
