The makers of Tiptree jam could soon be moving some of their business away from their headquarters.

Wilkin and Sons, who continue to be based in Tiptree, are planning to occupy a new warehouse site at Earls Colne Business Park.

The company will initially use the site for storage of raw materials and finished food products, but Wilkin and Sons could use the building as a bakery in the future.

A spokesman for Wilkin and Sons said: "It is expected that agreement will soon be reached to occupy 50,000 sq ft premises in Earls Colne."
