Yorkshire sausage company to appear on BBC's The Fixer
Family run sausage company HECK has struck deals with several major supermarkets after filming for retail guru Alex Polizzi’s BBC2 series The Fixer.
In addition to Tesco who gave the Yorkshire-based company their first break just over a year ago, the Keeble family behind HECK has also struck deals to supply Waitrose, Morrisons, Asda and Booths.
The firm is on track to hit £5 million turnover in the next 12 months after receiving advice from Polizzi and her team.
The third series of The Fixer, which follows family run businesses that need a helping hand to take them forward, started on Monday.
The episode featuring HECK, which airs on Monday 8th September, looks at trading with the big supermarkets.
HECK is the family’s second sausage venture after parents Debbie and Andrew Keeble set up leading brand Debbie & Andrew’s more than 15 years ago.
Whilst working with Alex, the Keebles made their first foray in the festival world with a Yorkshire Sausage & Beer Festival in association with Camp Hill.
Debbie Keeble said: “Our time with Alex has been really hard work and a real eye opener. We’ve been in the pig farming and sausage business for over 25 years but we still all learned an amazing amount from the experience and it has given us a real sense of pride in what we’re doing and the confidence to work with our children to take our business to the next level.”
