About Us
Geary's is an entrepreneurial private bakery business based in Leicestershire, supplying major retailers and foodservice customers. We have sales of £70m and aspire to be the UK's first choice for affordable high-quality artisan bread at scale - unbeatable for quality, service, innovation, and value-for-money.
We have a proud and successful heritage stretching back over 100 years, but we have a modern outlook and big ambitions. Recently, we received significant investment from the Unsworth Family to accelerate our ambitious growth plans.
We believe that great bread takes time and care. We specialize in sourdough-based propositions and long-fermentation, where the time and care make all the difference to the taste. We have a passion for creating great quality bread by integrating the best of traditional bakery skills and modern manufacturing methods.
The business has grown rapidly from £5m in annual sales to £60m in the last 13 years with strong and consistent profitability. We aim to increase sales to more than £100m in the next 3-5 years. A clear vision and strategy have been articulated and this is being backed with major capital investment and a renewal and upgrading of the people, processes, and systems.
We are a two-site business, having opened our new £15m state-of-the-art bakery in Glenfield in 2018 along with our facility at Barrow-upon-Soar. Each site has its own particular focus. In total, we have just over 650 employees.
At its core, our business is remarkably simple, with 80 SKUs, which includes 6 new SKUs launching in September 2023, 10 customers, and around 125 differing raw materials/components. Although this is getting more complicated as we grow, keeping things simple is a fundamental part of our business approach.
