Spar wholesaler James Hall & Co makes a piece of history.
James Hall & Co, Spar wholesaler for the north of England, is set to make its 60 millionth sandThe milestone demonstrates how demand for food-to-go products – including sandwiches – has increased wich since production began in 2009.
The family-run business, which serves a network of over 600 independent and company-owned Spar stores across the north of England, produces a range of nine sandwiches and makes over 21,000 of these a day at its purpose-built distribution centre in Preston.

The sale of the sandwiches has also raised £600,000 for the Marie Curie and NSPCC charities.
