A toilet roll and kitchen towel supplier to the likes of Tesco, Aldi, Morrisons and Wilko's has cut 150 jobs over the last two years as part of an automation drive, it has been revealed.
Lancashire-headquartered Accrol has reduced its headcount from 425 to 275 as it increased automation at its Blackburn, Leyland and Leicester sites.
The news was revealed in newly-filed accounts for the AIM-listed group which also showed its revenue increased from £136.6m to £159.5m in the 12 months to April 30, 2022.
