Filmore & Union, the BGF-backed healthy eating group, is to make its debut in the Midlands, and at the same strengthen its partnership with John Lewis.
The company, which hopes to add six sites to its portfolio this year, will open a site in the John Lewis in Nottingham city centre. Last month, it opened a second site within one of the retailer’s stores in Newcastle, which followed on from an opening in the York John Lewis last year.
Founder Adele Carnell told MCA in November that following the £3.5m investment from BGF announced in September, the business was also investing in its production kitchen, and working on its evening offer.
On expansion, she said: “By the end of this year we will have 15, and then we will probably 20 or 21 by this time next year.”
