Roberts Bakery to move biscuit factory to new Winsford site

Family owned historic Cheshire breadmakers Roberts Bakery has signed a 15 year lease on a  newly refurbished 60,600 sq ft industrial unit at Winsford Industrial Estate in Cheshire.

The facility, which is set within 2.45 acres, will become the new site for Roberts biscuit manufacturing division, The Little Treats Bakery. 

Located 4 miles from its Northwich headquarters, the Winsford facility will create a “centre of excellence for biscuit production”. The building will also provide storage capacity for finished products and raw materials.

The bakery is a fourth generation family business dating back to 1807.

Matt Pochin, Director at Legat Owen who acted for the landowner Pitalia, alongside JLL, said: “Winsford Industrial Estate has grown to become a significant regional employment location with major manufacturing and distribution facilities. Roberts Bakery are a notable addition to the Estate and will be creating new jobs and reinforcing Winsford’s position as a key industrial location in the North West.”
