History

The Great North Pie Company was set up in 2008 by Neil Broomfield. Having worked in some of the region’s top restaurants, including Heathcotes in Manchester and alongside Jeff Baker in York, Neil started the company making pies in his spare time to sell at a local farmers' market. He sold out at his first market in just an hour and since then the business has gone from strength to strength. After his recent success in both the North West Fine Food Awards and The British Pie Awards, Neil has decided to go full time in pursuit of his "Artisan Pie Dream" - to make quality pies made with quality local ingredients.
