Who are we ?

We are FBC UK, Fox's Burton's Companies! ……-And we bake the UK's most incredible biscuits (we might be slightly biased, but we
will leave that for you to judge).

FBC UK was a match made in heaven, with two of the top UK biscuits manufacturers (Burton's Biscuits and Fox's Biscuits) coming
together to create one unique, integrated company. We are home to famous iconic brands, including Maryland, Fox's, Jammie Dodger &
Rocky, to name just a few. We bake our incredible biscuits at eight bakeries across the UK, located at Ilse of Arran, Livingston,
Blackpool, Llantarnam, Edinburgh, Kirkham, Batley & Dorset. We also have offices for our supporting services in St Albans,
Liverpool and Moreton. Together, we employ circa 4,000 amazing employees across all our locations.

We are currently the second biscuit manufacturer in the UK market with a strong ambition of becoming the number two biscuit
manufacturer worldwide. Along with our fantastic brand portfolio, we also have long-term agreements to manufacture several sweet &
savoury snacks across Mars, Jacobs, and LU branded products. In addition, we are proud to be a strategic partner for many
retailer-branded products.

Our employees make our business special. With strong family values, we believe FBC UK is a more prosperous and fun place to work
with when people feel free to be themselves. We believe in the power of being authentic, entrepreneurial and supporting each
whilst meeting our business goals.

And don't forget… work hard but play harder!
