ALLIED BAKERIES

We're one of three divisions of Allied Milling and Baking, which in turn is a part of Associated British Foods (ABF) plc, a major international business with a turnover of £10.2bn and close to 100, 000 employees working in 44 countries. In the UK, well-known ABF brands include: Twinings, Silver Spoon, Primark, Ryvita, Ovaltine, Patak's and Jordans Cereals. We have lots of talented people at Allied Bakeries, all of them keen to provide the best products and services to our customers and consumers nationwide based on a clear understanding of their needs for a great range, great service and availability today and tomorrow. To us, being one of the UK's leading bakery businesses, with brands that are a key part of a balanced nutritious diet, is a privilege that spurs us on to do even more, even better. As a company whose goal is to "be proud of the way we do business", we deliver only the best! Our approach to new product development takes the same starting point: understanding our customer and what he or she needs.

Alongside that, we research consumer benefits, from attitudes and behaviour to the role of bakery at various meal occasions. That way, we know our bright ideas will evolve into exciting and relevant products. Throughout our bakeries and offices, quality, service and innovation are paramount. Our Sales, Operations and Logistics operations are delivered by people who see Allied Bakeries as a great place to work.

They're proud of what we do, our manufacturing processes, our dedication to developing a superb supply chain, and the way we all work to be even better. This pride translates into energy and enthusiasm that's demonstrated in a whole host of achievements from industry-leading environmental credentials to external recognition of excellence.
