Fletchers Bakeries are still going strong from their premises on Claywheels Lane at Wadsley Bridge in Sheffield.
Since 1999 they have been wholly owned by ***Northern Foods and employ over 700 people on the site, producing a wide range of fresh and frozen bread, rolls and speciality bakery products, including burger buns, muffins, doughnuts and scones.
Many products are produced under various Supermarket's own labels, so you could well be still enjoying Fletchers produce without realising it.
Although the small door to door vans have long since gone, Fletchers now operate a large fleet of articulated trucks, making bulk deliveries to Regional Distribution Centres all over the country, for onward dispatch to the supermarkets.
***Northern Foods also owned Barchelors from 1986 to 2003.
