GAIL’s will open their first bakery in Wilmslow, Cheshire, on Thursday 16th February. The new bakery will serve GAIL’s artisan sourdough breads, pastries, sandwiches, and cakes as well as its specialty House Blend coffee.
GAIL’s have also announced a city centre opening, with a bakery planned for King Street, Central Manchester. A third bakery, on Shaw’s Road in Altrincham will also open later in the year.
The opening of GAIL’s bakeries in the region reinforces its long-standing ties to the area following GAIL’s wholesale bakery, opened in Openshaw in 2017. It has since supplied high quality, artisan breads to some of the region’s top restaurants, café’s and hotels. The new bakeries will create new careers for people in craft baking, specialty coffee and bakery management.
GAIL’s believes in supporting local charities in their neighbourhoods. Their bakery in Openshaw has been supporting FareShare as well as local schools, presenting and teaching students about the benefit of healthier craft bread. A newly established partnership with Manchester based EatWellMCR will allow the distribution of any surplus food to those in the region who need it most in Wilmslow and surrounding neighbourhoods.
