| Traditional values paying off for Country Pies |
| Four years after Martyn Cox and Taylor Scrutton took over Country Pies, the Suffolk business is being relaunched with a new brand identity and expanding product range.

In 2011 we co-operated with Suffolk College in providing work experience for some of their students. We ended up employing one of them and he is now celebrating his first full year with us! We are also now working with Colchester Institute - building up a good working relationship.
The 2013 summer was a busy one for Country Pies, with business in London
being particularly brisque!
Colchester United
We are extremely delighted to announce our association with Colchester United Football Club it means so much to us that we as a local supplier sourcing local produce have been given the opportunity to supply a local Football Club such as Colchester United!
New Pies
Our lighter summer pie fillings and quiches were very well received but of course have now been replaced by a new more robust winter range which is featured on our Home page, more winter quiches will be announced shortly!
Much needed aquisition
For some time now the lack of space has become a problem for us but has now been remedied by obtaining the adjoining building, the new unit will house a new office, staff kitchen, toilet facilities, staff room and more storage space.
The large upstairs will be turned into an office and hospitality area next year where we will do tasting demonstrations, the old office is being knocked out to create extra kitchen space!
