A UK bakery that had been trading for 12 years has collapsed into liquidation.
Kellys Bakeries Ltd had liquidators appointed on June 22, 2026, according to The Gazette.
The Norwich-registered firm produces bread, fresh pastry goods and cakes, while also supplying retailers with its products.
The company is additionally listed as selling flour confectionery and sugar confectionery through specialist stores.
Jo Watts and Andrew McTear, both of McTear Williams and Wood Limited, have been appointed as liquidators by creditors and members.
The business was incorporated on December 2, 2014, according to Companies House records.
The food retailer is amongst numerous businesses that have recently fallen into liquidation amid a turbulent financial climate.
Last month, a much-loved British bakery chain shuttered all of its stores after accumulating a shortfall of nearly £779,000, according to newly filed Companies House documents.
Routledges was first established in 1917 and had built a formidable reputation for its extensive range of baked goods, including pastries, bread, cakes and filled rolls.
At the time of the closures, the bakery released a statement announcing their decision “with incredibly heavy hearts”.
Routledges said: “This is not something we ever thought we would have to write.
“Routledges has now closed for good after 109 years.”
The company also stated that 2025 was “one of the toughest years we have ever endured”.
