UK-based Addo Food Group is planning to close its Spalding bakery by next year to make the business profitable.

The decision is expected to affect more than 400 people working at the Spalding bakery facility.

According to the company, the move would help to maintain its ‘leading position’ in what it described as ‘an increasingly competitive marketplace’.

For more than three decades, Spalding bakery has been engaged in the production of sausage rolls and pasties, as well as snack items such as pizza pockets, mini burgers and mini pasties.

The products were supplied to supermarkets such as Tesco, Aldi and Nisa.

Addo Food Group CEO Deborah Bolton said that the company would be doing ‘everything possible’ to help staff.

Bolton said: “We fully understand the disappointment of this announcement for all of our employees, and we are committed to doing everything possible to support them over the coming weeks, especially those who would be directly affected.

“In order to maintain our market-leading position and meet customer expectations as efficiently as possible, we need to optimise our manufacturing sites to enable continued investment in quality, service and product and packaging innovation. This proposal will allow us to achieve this.”

The company is planning to move the production of sausage rolls and pies to its other bakery facilities, which are located in Poole, Dorset, and Market Drayton, Shropshire.

In February, Deborah Bolton was promoted to the role of CEO, replacing Chris Peters.
