At Burton’s Biscuits, our absolute priority is the health, safety and wellbeing of our colleagues and we are taking a comprehensive range of actions to ensure that we remain fully compliant with all current government guidelines relating to safe working practices covering COVID-19.

Within our bakeries, this includes stringent following of social distancing guidance, temporarily closing production lines where this is not possible and numerous other safety measures.

Where possible, employees who can work remotely have been supported in working from home.

We will continue to take guidance from the government and food industry advisors and will act in full accordance with that advice.

We believe that food manufacturing, distribution and retailing are playing a critical role in meeting consumer needs at this time of great uncertainty.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank our colleagues, suppliers and supply chain partners for their tireless efforts in maintaining the supply of products to our customers.
