We are delighted to announce the Prima Bakeries group's acquisition of the iconic biscuit manufacturer, Furniss of Cornwall!

Furniss of Cornwall will now operate under the Prima Bakeries Group (incorporating Prima and Cornish Premier) with all staff joining the Employee Ownership Trust.

Jason headed to Nansledan School yesterday along with the CPA to help teach pupils in Year 4 how to make Cornish Pasties. The children made and crimped the Cornish Pasties (see photos!) and then the canteen baked them for the children to take them home.

A massive congratulations to Leigh Rossin who completed the London Marathon yesterday to raise money for SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity.

Last week the CPP team went to the Cornwall Manufacturers Awards, where we got Runner Up in the Small Manufacturer Award!  Thank you to the Cornwall Manufacturing Group for the recognition and a great night - we had a lot of fun! Well done to all the other businesses that won awards 👏

Another year, another successful Cornish Pasty Week! This year, all businesses involved raised an incredible £20,000 for Cornish Pasty Community Fund. We raised £1,500 towards this - thank you to everyone who visited us during the week!

The Prima Bakeries Group, incorporating both Prima Bakeries and Cornish Premier Pasties , will be transitioning into an employee-owned business. As a group, we are currently the fourth-largest producer of Cornish Pasties in the world and the largest locally owned producer in Cornwall.

With the support of our friends at Ignition Credit in Truro, we are the proud new owners of 320 solar panels. Installed by Bristol based Solarsense, these are part of a 131.2kw system that will save over 50 tonnes of CO2 each year.

We're looking to fill some new full-time positions due to growth here at our St Columb Major site.

It was lovely to see the fantastic The Wonka Wagon at our factory today. Our staff have been working so hard that we thought they deserved a well-earned treat.
