It must have been pretty precarious already. I was only speculating as to the reasons now sadly confirmed by Amadeus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, what a treat a yard of pasty is. @offshoremanxman I always found their bread to be good quality and much nicer than anything imported or "baked on site" in all the supermarkets. This is such a surprise, (and a shock to the employees) as they seemed to ride out Covid quite nicely, but they also cite the cost of raw materials. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0bserver Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Government will get involved and take it on as another qango. They've got a saw mill, flour mill, abattoir and various other businesses... why not a bakery? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prime development site in town, Dandara/Haven could get at least 30 two-beds on there... Laxey Mills could be hit, as you say....mind, Ramsey Bakery always used to cite the cost of the Mills product when there were complaints about RB bread prices?

Their bread has always been ok but I buy imported as it's cheaper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleepyJoe Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 (edited) Now Laxey Mills have said their stocks are good Would they have increased the price of existing stock as markets pushed them up globally?

How much grain/flour is imported from Ukraine? I am sure I read that the current war would impact grain prices, perhaps the flour mills has become even more important? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the whole 'International market' thing that bumps up the price for everyone. ETA makes you wonder how wise it's been for Government to be encouraging farmers to re-wild perfectly good arable farmland...
