英国面包连锁店格雷格斯（Greggs）宣布计划关闭四家国内工厂，涉及约740个潜在工作岗位丧失1。这四家工厂分别位于伦敦北部的恩菲尔德、坎布里亚的彭里斯、苏格兰罗克斯伯勒郡的凯尔索以及达勒姆郡的西汉姆1。公司表示，威尔士的特雷福雷斯特工厂将继续作为配送中心运营1。
该项目初期投入成本为6000万英镑，包括遣散赔偿在内1。尽管需要承担这笔高额成本，格雷格斯预计到2028年每年能够节省2000万英镑1。公司声称这些关闭对于以最具成本效益的方式实现增长是必要的1。值得注意的是，格雷格斯最近季度销售增长达7.7%1，2024年已新开设57家门店，并计划到2026年底再新增100至110家店铺1。
在价格调整方面，格雷格斯旗下产品近期出现涨价，其中标志性产品香肠卷今年上涨5便士至1.35英镑，拿铁咖啡涨价10便士至2.25英镑1。该集团目前拥有员工超过33000人1。
British bakery chain Greggs announced plans to close four factories across the UK, potentially eliminating 740 jobs.1 The closures affect facilities in Enfield, North London; Penrith, Cumbria; Kelso, Scottish Borders; and Seaham, County Durham, while the Treforest plant in Wales will continue operating as a distribution center.1 The company will invest £60 million upfront to execute the restructuring, including redundancy costs, but expects to save £20 million annually by 2028.1
Despite the factory shutdowns, Greggs reported strong recent trading performance, with sales growth of 7.7% in the most recent quarter and 7.2% for the first half of the year.1 The company characterized the closures as necessary to support cost-effective expansion, having opened 57 new outlets in 2024 and planning to add between 100 and 110 stores by the end of 2026.1 The announcement prompted a positive market response, with Greggs' share price climbing 7.3% on Wednesday and gaining 17% over the year to date.1
Greggs, which employs over 33,000 people across the group, has also adjusted consumer pricing this year, with sausage rolls rising 5 pence to £1.35 and lattes increasing 10 pence to £2.25.1
