Related tags Naan

Dunstable-based bakery Honeytop Speciality Foods has doubled its capacity and created 140 new jobs following new business wins and an expansion of its product range.

The family-owned firm, which makes flatbreads, tortillas, naans and crumpets, has also acquired an additional 12,077m2​ of production space on the Woodside Industrial Estate in Dunstable.

The expansion was the result of “strengthened relationships with new and existing customers following a move into the production of morning goods including crumpets and pancakes”​, said joint md David Laurence.

As part of the expansion programme​, Honeytop engineers had built several bespoke hot-plate lines for batter-based products, he added: “The expansion has seen the business develop in new and exciting ways, with a more complete range of products and many talented people joining the team.

"We are always on the look-out for when new sites become available as we plan our further expansion and continuous growth.”

Founded in 1984 by Dr Samir Eid, Honeytop employs 400 people.
