The £2m pasty empire responsible for some of Plymouth’s favourite oggies has gone on the market because the couple who founded it are looking to retire. Nigel and Janet Eadie are mulling the sale of the Original Pasty House, with its two outlets in Plymouth and Tavistock.
The business was founded in the South West Devon town in 2003 and expanded into Britain’s Ocean City in 2011. It went on to see turnover hit £2.29m and an annual profit of £195,000, which is “rising”.
The firm was also named producer of Plymouth’s favourite pasty three years in a row from 2017 and regularly appears in lists of the best pasty makers. But its owners are now looking for someone else to take on the business so they can put their feet up.
