Wisbech
Our food production site
Wisbech is home to our food production site in Cambridgeshire. It is where we produce our canned products including baked beans, soups, pulses, pasta and sauces.
The site is also a major purchaser of locally-grown produce and ingredients from the British countryside.
We are as passionate about supporting British farmers as we are about producing tasty and nourishing food.
Between them, our Wisbech and Long Sutton sites collectively produce more than a billion cans of branded and customer own brand food a year.
One of the brands we produce in Wisbech is the well-known household brand Crosse & Blackwell. Its range includes soups, children’s meals, vegetables and cooking sauces.
