Jenkins Bakery helps cheer on the Swans



The Jenkins Bakery is doing its bit to cheer on Swansea City in the Premiership.
The South Wales bakery has produced special biscuits in home and away colours to support the Swans.
Russell Jenkins, operations director for the Jenkins Bakery, said: "We are very big on sport at the Jenkins Bakery and like to get behind our local teams.
"The Swans are currently doing well in the Premiership and sitting nicely in mid-table.
"Our Swans biscuits are on sale at all our outlets, but are particularly popular at our Swansea shops at Whitewalls, Sketty Park and Uplands."
The biscuits are hand-made using the family firm's top quality shortbread recipe and skilfully decorated with coloured sugar-paste and icing. The biscuits sell for 75p.

The Jenkins bakery employs 300 people, full and part-time, across 25 different stores in South Wales.
The company has the Gold Standard Welsh Food Hygiene Award and the Investors in People award.
The business employs 70 people at its Trostre HQ, while the Jenkins shop network stretches from Carmarthen to Bridgend. There are 13 shops in Carmarthenshire and even one as far afield as Powys.
