Today we have a portfolio of five food businesses in distinct, yet complimentary market areas, employing over 2,000 people. We have occupied the current site in Hull since 1907 and we now have 3 bread plants in our main bakery. We recently developed a second bakery, also at our site in Hull, which specialises in premium quality roll production. We specialise in the supply of bread and other carriers to the sandwich manufacturers, foodservice and export channels, and in 2012 we launched our consumer facing brand "Jackson's of Yorkshire". In 2018 we opened a brandnew site in Corby, Northamptonshire one of the largest investments our Group has ever made and this will allow us to realise our ambition of being the best at what we do.
