Eat My Logo celebrates their 10th year in Business!

This December, Lancashire’s bakery for business, Eat My Logo, founded by Andy and Ruth Poar, celebrates its 10^th Anniversary! Since their establishment in 2014, they’ve grown from a small-scale bakery servicing local demand to the UK’s largest operating bakery dedicated to providing corporate branded cakes, biscuits, confections, and chocolate.

To mark their incredible milestone, the team behind the business are sharing some of the fantastic moments they have achieved together since opening their doors in 2014.

Unit expansion: Eat My Logo began in a quaint cake shop nestled in the heart of Chorley's town centre. Presently, the enterprise thrives in a meticulously designed bakery unit, having expanded its footprint from a modest 500 square feet to an impressive 9,000 square feet.

More recently, the bakery underwent construction to build a chocolate room, fitted with high-quality machinery and equipment. This expansion was brought on by their acquirement of a successful chocolate company known as Cocoapod, which are specified in B2C printed chocolate gift boxes.

Ruth Poar, the Director, proudly remarked, "We take immense pride in our team's accomplishments and the well-deserved recognition they've received."

More recently, they have made significant strides by transitioning to Wild-Framed flour and earning an EcoVadis gold medal, which ranks them among the top 5% of sustainable businesses globally.

Team Growth: The team at Eat My Logo has experienced significant expansion since its inception, led by founders Ruth and Andy. Consisting of 16 members across both their production and office functions, their steadfast dedication guarantees customer satisfaction with every order, day after day.
