The UK baked goods manufacturer has plunged into liquidation after 12 years in business – liquidators were appointed on June 22, according to publicly released documents
A UK bakery, in business for 12 years, has plunged into liquidation.
Kellys Bakeries Ltd was appointed liquidators on June 22, 2026 according to The Gazette.
The company, registered in Norwich, manufactures bread, fresh pastry goods and cakes as well as selling them to retailers.
The company is also listed as selling flour confectionery and sugar confectionery in specialised stores.
Jo Watts and Andrew McTear both of McTear Williams & Wood Limited have been appointed as liquidatiors by creditors and members.
The business was incorporated on December 2, 2014, records via Companies House show.
The food retailer is one of many that have recently plunged into liquidation in an uncertain financial climate.
Last month, a beloved British bakery chain shuttered all of its stores after accumulating a shortfall of nearly £779,000, according to newly filed Companies House documents.
Routledges was first established in 1917 and had a strong reputation for its extensive selection of baked goods, including pastries, bread, cakes and filled rolls.
At the time of the closures, the bakery issued a statement announcing their decision “with incredibly heavy hearts”.
Routledges said: “This is not something we ever thought we would have to write.
“Routledges has now closed for good after 109 years.”
The company also stated that 2025 was “one of the toughest years we have ever endured”.
