Ten Years of Keeping Breakfast Bowls Full

Bertschi UK Container Storage with Kelloggs Characters on site

For more than a decade, Bertschi UK has been helping keep one of Britain’s best-known cereal production sites supplied with rice.

Since the first delivery in February 2016, Bertschi has transported whole rice to Kellogg’s Manchester facility in Dry Bulk liner containers. Over the years, the operation continued through Brexit, changing customs requirements and major global supply chain disruptions, supported by close cooperation between the Bertschi and Kellogg’s teams.

Ten years in numbers

Kellogs and Bertschi UK in Numbers: 11,030 Dry Bulk Bertschi boxes loaded, transported, and delivered safely to the UK. 298,328.68 tonnes of rice transported across a decade. 784 Million standard boxes of cereal produced and packed. 13.5 Billion breakfast bowls served up to hungry families worldwide.

In August 2026, Bertschi completed its final rice delivery to the Manchester site as Kellogg’s prepares to decommission the factory and transfer production to Wrexham later this autumn.

From the first delivery in 2016 to the last in 2026, a big thank you to everyone at Kellogg’s and Bertschi who helped keep the supply chain running safely and reliably for ten years.

A fitting final Snap, Crackle, and Pop for a partnership that helped fill billions of breakfast bowls.
