Based in the Cheshire market town of Northwich, the company was established in 1887 and is still very much a family business. The Frank Roberts and Sons group comprises four main business divisions and the Northwich site is home to two of these, Roberts Bakery and The Pastry Case. The latest additions to the family are Aldred’s The Bakers, located in Ilkeston, Derbyshire and P&A Davies who are based in Hawarden near Chester.
The company is proud to play an important part in the local Northwich community and the cooling towers at the front of Roberts Bakery, along with the enticing smell of freshly baked bread, have become a renowned Cheshire landmark.
