Greggs boss hails company's 'secret sauce' amid huge sales and expansion plans

The boss of Greggs has hailed the company's "secret sauce" as it announced a jump in sales and plans for 150 new shops.

New results from the sausage roll seller show sales topped £1.5bn last year as it opened up in more retail parks and train stations across the country. Chief executive Roisin Currie celebrated Greggs' company culture as its "secret sauce" that meant staff enjoyed going to work and made the business stronger and better.

Some Greggs 28,400 staff will now share a £16.6m bonus pot thanks to the company performance which saw pre-tax profits climbed to £148.3m. The food-on-the-go brand said sales of its pizza and chicken goujons were particularly strong.
