Culture of support
In 2014 , Sugden partnered with Baldwin Technical Services Ltd ( Baldwin ), which has grown from a small team of core engineers working predominantly on control systems in the UK food industry to an enterprise that operates globally and can assist with all aspects of automation , electrical and software requirements . Baldwin has built an enviable international client base that includes UK and global , household brands from within the food and beverage industry . Baldwin had been installing bulk ingredient systems , such as silos and weigh stations , for Sugden , for a number of years . As a consequence , Sugden ’ s capabilities have been made possible through the synergy of this natural partnership , which has enabled the provision of a full turnkey system , and in turn , facilitated greater output and enhanced growth .
This was a watershed in terms of Sugden ’ s horizons being broadened , and helped to facilitate further growth . As a result , the business was able to win contracts in the Southern Hemisphere , enjoy significant success in the USA for its English muffin equipment , and sustain its reputation in Europe and the UK as a world class manufacturer of industrial baking lines .
In light of this sustained success , in 2019 , Sugden moved into a 35,000 square-foot purpose-built facility in Lancashire , in the UK , allowing it to ramp up its manufacturing capabilities . As part of its offering , the business can design and manufacture custom plant to meet the individual and specific requirements of its customers . The business can also ship , install , commission and offer training in many countries around the globe , as part of its extensive sales , and aftercare service .
Since its formation , Sugden , in partnership with Baldwin , has worked tirelessly to develop its equipment , and remain a manufacturing leader . For the business to enjoy sustained success , and operate effectively within this partnership , it has encouraged a culture of support where expertise is shared . Today , Sugden continues to produce superior machines that enable the global production of a wealth of popular and tasty treats . ■
