BARNSLEY-based food manufacturing company Rupert's Recipes has invested £250,000 in new factory premises almost six times bigger than its existing base.

The company, which produces a range of flour-based coatings for chicken and fish, as well as marinades and seasonings, has been based at Zenith Business Park, Barugh Green since 2012.

But it is in the process of moving in to a 20,000 square foot factory on Fields End Business Park, Goldthorpe.

The move will create ten new jobs and allow the company to blend three times as much product a week.
