Warrens Bakery continues expansion with new Taunton store

Published: 31 October 2017

Warrens Bakery has unveiled its newest franchise store in Taunton, Somerset, as part of its current growth plans.

Warrens Bakery

The outlet, which opened on 30 October, will be the bakery’s seventh franchise store to open since February. The launch will create 10 new job opportunities, and it comes as the company is announced as one of the UK’s top three craft bakeries at the Baking Industry Awards 2017.

Local entrepreneur James Tucker, who recently opened the nearby Bridgwater branch, has partnered with the world’s oldest Cornish pasty maker again to become the owner of the new bakery.

He says: "With Warrens I know where the product comes from – something that is important to me – and I can follow its journey all the way from production to the first delicious bite.

"Knowing that Warrens still use the same fresh, local ingredients and hand-crafted skills for every product really sets them apart from any other bakery." Established in 1860, Warrens Bakery is set to be one of the fastest-growing franchise brands in the UK in 2017, and the Taunton store will be part of a string of further openings, including in Birmingham, London and Winchester.
