	Greggs will probably only be a small 'player' in this situation since there appear to be two unnamed trade buyers after 200 stores in Scotland and 300 in England respectively. Greggs would probably be looking hardest amongst the administration properties for stores in the South East and South West, but may not have first pick. They would be more likely, in the end, to be picking up small groups of properties with a 'Southern' bias, which are not too far from existing bakeries. They have however shown in the past, with the Belgian excursion, that they are prepared to 'truck' their product fairly considerable distances. I would speculate that Greggs will pick up less than 50 units and probably something closer to 25, as I do not see them relaxing their location criteria just to be seen to be getting off to a flying start with the 2010 expansion plan.

Tue 12:25	Greggs eyeing parts of off-licence chain	ignateus ignoramus	3


	View Author's profile \| Add to favourites \| Ignore \| Author's posts
	Greggs may have submitted a bid for up to 100 units to the administrators of the failed off-licence chain First Quench Ltd by last Friday. The firm certainly confirmed that they were actively looking at making quick progress with putting in place their expansion plan, by a possible acquisition of a group of stores from First Quench. Expect further info on this point towards the end of the month. Greggs were today showing analysts and institutional investors around the new 75,000 sq ft Manchester Bakery which was part of a £16m joint deal with Manchester City Council and New East Manchester. £7m of that amount came from a grant from the North West Regional Development Agency (NWDA), and 300 jobs have been secured by retaining the new facility in East Manchester.

Mon 15:16	Newcastle and now Manchester Airport	ignateus ignoramus	1


	View Author's profile \| Add to favourites \| Ignore \| Author's posts
	Newcastle Airport has long had a Greggs. It has apparently now been joined by Manchester Airport (thanks to 'The Pieman' for this info). This is another example of the new managements' push for change - the idea is to follow the customers - and the idea has been put into practice in this case. This is just what we expect from the man (Capt Ken) who achieves what he sets out as his and the Company's goals/targets. More \| View thread (1) \| Respond \| Login to Vote up \| Login to Vote down

	Yup. buying BEFORE the 10-1 split was a no-brainer. Stock price even went below 30 quid at one stage. I would say on average, stock is trading at a premium of an average of +20% post split. The split certainly has improved tradeability. I am currently on holiday in SA, and flew out from Manchester airport. Did you know there is now a Greggs in Manchester airport. BRILLIANT. Got 3 coffee's and 3 donuts for a fiver. BRILLIANT................well have some more of that. I have been expecting a mkt correction......it may or may not come. If it does.......I will certainly look at buying some more Greggs stock. Best of luck all, and get out there sampling those greggs pasties.
