Middleton Foods breaks ground on Willenhall site expansion
Middleton Foods, a family-owned and operated manufacturer of foodservice and bakery pre-mixes, has begun a £4m expansion of its Willenhall factory in the West Midlands, adding new space, sustainable features and a state-of-the-art development kitchen.
The site development will add 780m² to its current footprint, across four floors, and has been designed with sustainability in mind, including a rainwater harvesting system, solar energy and electric vehicle charging points.
It will also house a dedicated presentation suite and photography studio, which will provide Middleton Foods with the opportunity to enhance its customer experience amongst partners in the fast food, foodservice, butchery, bakery and food manufacturing sectors. Customers will be able to fully immerse themselves in the Middleton Foods offering and work even more collaboratively to develop new products and solutions.

Glen Middleton, director at Middleton Foods, said: “We’re excited to have broken ground on the plans for the expansion of our existing factory site here at Middleton Business Park; something we’ve been planning for over a year. It’s great to see it becoming a reality. In the last few years, we’ve seen continued growth for Middleton Foods, and this expansion is a significant part of our investment and wider goals for further business growth.
“It’s important to our history and the commitment to our business, our incredible team and the local community, as we continue to lead the market in dry mix ingredients. The new space will link to our dedicated allergen control production area and will incorporate a state-of-the-art development kitchen, designed and custom-built by Qook! by KFE Ltd.”
