Jobs are on the line at Nottingham business The Compleat Food Group, as reports reveal plans to reduce employee numbers at a pie-making facility.
The firm told Just Food it has entered into discussions over possible redundancies, with up to 131 roles at risk at Tottle Bakery in Nottingham.
A spokesperson from the company explained that the plans are a result of a “comprehensive review of cold pie volume,” with jobs to be cut “across several departments.”
They added the plans were “due to changing demand in a competitive trading environment and to ensure we can continue to support the long-term sustainable future of roles at the site.”
The Compleat Food Group is not planning to close the factory, however.
The business made a number of acquisitions last year, with aims to become the UK’s number one chilled prepared food company, including speciality food producer and distributor Harvey & Brockless, SK Foods and Zorba Foods.
