A pre-pack deal with Boparan Private Office has saved 433 jobs at Roberts Bakery.
The investment firm, owned by entrepreneur Ranjit Singh Boparan, has created a new company, Roberts Bakery 1887 Ltd, in a deal made for an undisclosed fee.
The new company is a reference to the year the Cheshire-based business was founded.
The deal comes after the fourth-generation family business, Frank Roberts & Son Ltd, filed a notice of intention to appoint administrators just over a week ago.
