Sales hit £20m for 142-year-old bird seed processor Johnston and Jeff

Sales have passed the £20 million mark for a long-standing East Yorkshire bird food manufacturer.

Turnover was up virtually 20 per cent for Johnston and Jeff in 2021, with recently added expansion space filled and a second blending plant to be welcomed as it meets growing demand.

The business had invested heavily pre-pandemic, with £1 million spent on the Gilberdyke base. And with lockdowns prompting a strong return to nature for many, it has thrived, underlined by the uplift from 2020’s revenues of £17.1 million. It has now doubled sales within seven years.
