Bakery giant creates jobs in Derby

Bakery chain Greggs has opened another Derby outlet after a deal brokered by Salloway Property Consultants.

Greggs has moved into the commercial development at Eagle Park.

Eight jobs have been created at the store.

A Greggs spokesperson said: “We knew how successful Eagle Park had been at attracting businesses so we wanted to provide tradespeople, local occupiers and their customers with convenient ‘food on the go’.

“Already it has been popular because it offers quick service, high quality, variety and well-priced food for those who want to avoid going into Derby city centre.”

Hugo Beresford, surveyor at Salloway Property Consultants, said: “It is another coup for Eagle Park to attract a company as well-known as Greggs.

“The outlet is already proving very attractive to the local workers.”

The Greggs unit was developed by Ivygrove and then sold to a private pension fund before being let to the bakery chain.
