We welcomed 40 guests to Gripples innovative premises, complete with a fish wall. Three of the employees, Trish, Clare, and Dave, took groups of breakfast goers out onto the factory floor to show off their newly built extension and their refurbished old building.
Gripples Director, Gordon Macrae, said: Today has been a great event, we had 40 people passionate about Yorkshire coming round and seeing what I hope is an exemplar business, and my hope from what weve done today is that some of the ideas and things that theyve seen they take back to their own businesses, and make Yorkshire the best place to do business.
A real pleasure to host @madeinyorks event today. Thanks @PJtaste for the great food. Lets make Yorkshire the place to do great business
