Lewis Pies of Swansea Ltd

Units 3-6 Abergelly Road, Swansea West Business Park, Fforestfach, Swansea, SA5 4DY

Lewis Pies was established in 1936 as a small bakery employing four people and is now a large manufacturing company with 100 full time staff. The original bakery was set up in Beech Street Swansea by the late Wilfred Charles Lewis, the father of current Managing Directors Wilfred and John Lewis. The brothers formed the partnership during the late 1970s to enable them to take over the business from their father, and it remains a family run business.

Lewis? Pies is focused on becoming the UK?s first choice supplier of pies and savoury products. To assist the Directors in this aim, the company offers high standards of customer service, constant monitoring of the market and assessing and planning for the future.

Historically the company has always listened to its customers in order for it to understand their needs and supply them with top quality products. This philosophy continues to be a corner stone of the company?s customer care policy.

?We make you bake?

The ?bake off? market is a rapidly expanding business. In recent years Lewis? have adapted their range of products to be suitable for in store baking. ?Freezebake? products maintain their quality whilst still keeping a delicious melt in the mouth texture.

Regal Range

Working with our customers we identified the need for a premier quality product to meet the needs of a more discerning customer.

Lewis' Pies share of the export market is growing.

We are already exporting to Europe and hope to increase our share of the market by attending the Food Exhibition, Alimentaria 2008 in March which is being held in Barcelona.
