We are excited to announce that we have acquired The Real Yorkshire Pudding Co.
The Real Yorkshire Pudding Co is the leading supplier of own label and branded chilled Yorkshire puddings in the UK and has driven consistent double-digit growth in the category to become a £33m turnover company.
It is our latest acquisition in our journey to become the UK’s number one chilled prepared food company and follows the acquisition of SK Foods and Zorba Foods, the category leaders in private label chilled party foods and dips and deli fillings, and Harvey & Brockless, a producer and distributor of speciality foods, in 2024.
With a leading market position within chilled categories, including savoury pastry, Mediterranean-deli, olives and antipasti, continental meats, dips and sauces and plant-based food, the latest acquisition will further extend our manufacturing capabilities and enable more category leadership and innovation to delight customers, while allowing the Real Yorkshire Pudding Co to leverage our extensive experience in category development to support its ambitious growth plans.
Founded in 1992, the Real Yorkshire Pudding Co is the No.1 chilled Yorkshire pudding brand in the UK and the leading own label supplier, with listings in all major retailers. It has a reputation for creating premium quality, indulgent products, which include Yorkshire puddings and toad in the hole.
Nick Field, CEO at The Compleat Food Group, said: “We are excited to welcome the Real Yorkshire Pudding Co to The Compleat Food Group. The Real Yorkshire Pudding Co has a longstanding reputation for creating high-quality, delicious food that people love to eat, which perfectly aligns to our mission to create food to feel good.”
“This partnership is about more than just great products, it’s about bringing together talented teams, shared values, and a culture of excellence to create something truly special. We are looking forward to the future and working with the Real Yorkshire Pudding Co as we continue to grow.”
Bill Howson, Managing Director at the Yorkshire Pudding Co, said: “Joining The Compleat Food Group marks an exciting new chapter for The Real Yorkshire Pudding Co. We’ve built our business on quality, innovation, and a passion for great Yorkshire puddings, and Compleat is the perfect partner to help us in the next stage of our growth journey. We’re excited to work together and the group’s expertise, market reach, and shared commitment to exceptional products make them a great fit for our ambitions.”
