Cooplands in York

Cooplands (Coopland & Son (Scarborough) Ltd) is the second largest bakery chain in the UK[1] with over 160 outlets and 12 cafes[2] located across Yorkshire, County Durham and Lincolnshire in the United Kingdom. Cooplands produces takeaway food chiefly for the lunch-time trade, specialising in sandwiches, pasties, desserts, cakes, and bread. It competes with other local cafés and takeaway outlets, and national and international high street food chains and franchises.

By 2011, it had expanded to become the third largest bakery chain in the UK.[3] In 2011 the company's annual turnover was £23 million.[4]

In 2021 Cooplands was bought by the EG Group.

Cooplands of Doncaster is a completely separate bakery chain and is not connected to Cooplands (Coopland & Son (Scarborough) Ltd) in any way. The similar company name and business model led to much confusion in the past (see below).

History

Cooplands was founded as a single shop in Scarborough, North Yorkshire in 1885,[5] and was incorporated in 1949.

In 1999, the company opened ten new stores, and expanded production at its Scarborough-based bakery with the creation of 80 new jobs.[6] A further expansion was announced in June 2007 when it acquired the Hull-based bakery, Skeltons. The purchase added 34 outlets to the Cooplands chain.[7]

In 2005, Cooplands was noted as being an "established NVQ training centre", and received a National Training Award for staff training. The same year it held a "Careers in the Bakery Industry" event, with career advisors discussing employment opportunities.[5]

2011년 4월, 경쟁사인 스카버러 기반의 체인인 우드헤드 베이커리가 행정부에 들어갔다.[8] 우드헤드 29개 점포 중 쿠플랜드는 18개를 사들였고, 나머지는 할데인 리테일 그룹이 사들였다.[9]

2017년 쿠플랜드는 영국 북부 전역에 자사 상점의 롤아웃을 가속화하기 위해 BGF로부터 8.5m의 투자를 받았다.[10]

2021년 10월 쿠플랜드는 슈퍼마켓 체인 아스다를 소유한 EG그룹에 인수됐다.[11]

쿠플랜드 돈캐스터

돈캐스터 기반의 쿠플랜드 체인은 결코 쿠플랜드&손(스칼버러) 계열이 아니다.[12] Coopland (Doncaster) Ltd. 그것은 사우스 요크셔, 웨스트 요크셔, 노스 노팅햄셔 그리고 링컨셔의 일부에 걸쳐 아울렛을 가지고 있다.[citation needed] 이 회사는 1933년에 설립된 사설 유한회사로서 2011년 매출액은 1860만 파운드였다.[13]

2015년 2월 Cooplands Doncaster는 행정에 들어갔으며 39개의 점포와 돈캐스터에 있는 본사와 제과점을 폐쇄할 것이라고 발표했다.[14] 그러나 이날 29개 소매점을 포함해 앨리슨스 커피숍의 사업과 일부 자산은 신규 업체인 쿠플랜드리테일이 인수했다. TACS(Alonics Coffee Shops) 직원 150명은 Cooplands Retail Ltd에 의해 유지되었으며, 요크셔 전역의 29개 점포에서 Cooplands로 사업을 지속하고 있다.[15]
