Watch out, Greggs, because it looks like Home Bargains is coming for your customers.
The discount homeware store has just announced it will be opening bakeries in 64 of its stores – and three will be in Greater Manchester.
Selling cut-price sausage rolls and Scotch eggs, cheese twists, 75p baguettes, and other household favourites, the budget retailer has revealed it will open three new in-store bakeries in Salford, Bolton, and Oldham this year.
Visitors will be able to find everything from tiger rolls and pastries to muffins and doughnuts at the new bakeries, with everything made on-site fresh that day.
Home Bargains has emphasised that there will be a small offering to allow it to focus on quality, with other options including 55p cinnamon whirls, vanilla crowns, ten mini jam, sugar or chocolate donuts for £1, and large four packs of donuts for 99p.
A spokesperson for Home Bargains said: “In recent years the market for fresh baked goods in the UK has grown significantly and the bakeries we have introduced at stores nationwide have allowed customers to enjoy our competitively priced fresh bakery range.
“We are looking forward to introducing more bakeries in stores as we roll out our fresh bakery range for customers across the UK to enjoy.”
