Britain’s biggest family the Radfords splash out on huge new bakery as pie business booms
BRITAIN’S biggest family has splashed out on a huge new bakery as their pie business booms in lockdown.
Sue, 46, and Noel, 30, Radford, from Morecambe, Lancashire, certainly have their hands full with their 22 kids - but now have bought a larger site to prepare their pies.
The family famously don’t rely on benefits and support themselves with their business venture.
Back in April, Sue and Noel revealed to their followers that they were looking for new premises to run their pie shop.
Noel said at the time: “The one we’ve got now has done us really well for the last 20 odd years, but we are slowly running out of space.
“Myself, Chloe and Jack are falling over each other with all the jobs we’ve got to do.
“We are looking for somewhere that is bigger so we can be making pies while packing them.
“We are getting orders out as fast as we can but just not as fast as we’d like to.”
Thankfully their hunt was successful, as the family shared a photo of their new pie location on Instagram.
This week, the family said: “What an exciting day. Work hard dream big and your dreams will come true so proud of all the hard work has put in to get this far #newadventures #dreambig #exciting #radfordspiecompany.”
is family-run, and daughter Chloe recently helped Noel to take the business online, alongside the pies they’ve sold in their shop for years.
Flavours range from chicken to veggie, costing £3.65 for small pies to £17.50 for a family-sized portion.
The Radfords live in a 10-bed former care home in Morecambe, and are parents to Chris, 32, Sophie, 27, Chloe, 25, Jack, 24, Daniel, 22, Luke, 20, Millie, 19, Katie, 18, James, 17, Ellie, 16, Aimee, 15, Josh, 13, Max, 12, Tillie, 11, Oscar, nine, Casper, eight, Hallie, six, Phoebe, four, Archie, three, Bonnie, two, and Heidie, one.
Sadly the couple's 17th child Alfie was still born on July 6, 2014.
In December, the family had to shut their family’s bakery due to them isolating, and lost money from orders.
The family recently starred on Channel 5 Show 22 Kids and Counting where Sue and Noel said they have spent £1m raising 22 kids & Sue has been pregnant for 16-and-a-half years.
Their most recent child was Heidie, who was born in April 2020 during lockdown.
