About Us

A Brief History

The Wheatley site is where it all started & where all of the production is made. Cornfield Bakery have been at this site since it was first built in 1972. Initially it was a shop & Coffee room plus a small finishing room, and was supplied with goods from the bakery where my father worked. After the early struggling years it was decided that the only way to make it work was to bake on the premises, so the coffee room made way for the bakery. When I took control in 1985 my early decisions where to push the snack food & to branch out into wholesale deliveries, both proved to be very good moves (Though not all of my decisions where good ones of course.)

And Now

The business is still under my regien along with my wife Rachel. My son Joe is now pushing me out of the bakery more & more (thank goodness) and three more of our children, my mother & sister in law all work in the business, so you see it is still very much a family concern, although I have to say it's not without great help and commitment from very good staff too.
