Do puddings count? :)

Re: Holland's Pies to be made in Ireland?
 

50 jobs? Although any job loss is bad it sounds a low number? There's more than 50 people work there, it must only be one section of it being moved to Ireland?

Re: Holland's Pies to be made in Ireland?
 

bear in mind that (i believe) a lot of their staff are agency staff and so are not included in the staff loss count

Re: Holland's Pies to be made in Ireland?
 

good riddance, i know a few people who have worked there and i wouldnt give a holllands pie to a stray dog

let them go

Well they will be keeping some local connection. They are shirt sponsors for Burnley next season.

I got the impression from the news it's partial shift not full closedown.

Re: Holland's Pies to be made in Ireland?
 

Disgraceful. That's money which could be going towards their LOCAL football league club. I'll definitely boycott 'em for that reason alone.

Re: Holland's Pies to be made in Ireland?
 

Never been a big fan of Hollands pies, prefer Bessie Greens but feel sorry for the job losses.

Re: Holland's Pies to be made in Ireland?
 

Maybe the sponsorship is offset by the contract for supply. :)
