Today, they stock their delicious produce in a range of outlets across the UK and even provide enough pies to fuel the hungry football fans at Forest Green Rovers FC, the world’s greenest football club.
Chris said: “Relocating to Northumberland marks a fresh chapter for Magpye, under the wide skies and amidst the inspiring landscape that fuels our creativity. We’ve already felt a warm welcome and immense support from Advance Northumberland, whose encouragement has been as satisfying as the fillings in our pies.
“This move isn’t just a change of scenery; it’s a chance to expand our horizons, to innovate, and to continue crafting pies that make hearts and bellies full. We’re ready to roll out our vision for Magpye’s future, one delicious pie at a time”.
Using sustainably sourced flour, plant-based butter and completely free of palm-oil, Magpye offer a wholesome experience, and a meat-free alternative, putting a delicious spin on the traditional British classic.
