Roberts Little Treats bakery in Winsford is creating around 50 new jobs with a £500,000 investment in chocolate and protein cluster production.

Roberts Little Treats bakery in Winsford is creating around 50 new jobs as part of a £500,000 investment in production capacity. The bakery, part of Roberts Bakery 1887 and owned by Boparan Private Office, has commissioned and installed a new production line for chocolate and high protein clusters. Recruitment is under way for production operatives, engineers and operational roles.

The expansion marks what the firm describes as a 'significant step forward' in the site's recovery and growth. It will allow Little Treats to move into new areas of the snacking market and broaden its product range alongside its established biscuit operation, which produces around 100 million biscuits a year.

James Rostron, site director at Little Treats Bakery, said the investment was 'a real vote of confidence in Little Treats, our people, and what we can achieve here'. He added that adding chocolate and protein clusters would 'give us another platform for growth and opens up opportunities with new products, customers, and markets'.
