In 1999 the company completely rebuilt their Wetherby factory, the modern building is now an impressive imposing steel structure with glass fronted entrances, this replaced a collection of dating sheds. The company employs approximately 300 full time employees.
The company started as a small independent fish and chip shop in Wetherby.[1] The company evolved to start making gravy and gravy products. In the 1960s the Sandbeck Industrial Estate started to develop in Wetherby, Goldenfry started to develop a factory there, the company extended their premises there until it reached maximum capacity on its site in the 1990s. The company demolished its factory and modernised its site building a new large impressive structure which opened in 1999.
During construction the tubular steel structure was unclad and could be seen around most of North East Wetherby earning it the nicknames Elland Road and The Pepsi Max after the football stadium and rollercoaster respectively.
