5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

Former England defender Danny Mills has invested in the struggling West Cornwall Pasty Company, saving 250 jobs. The firm went into administration last week but was bought by Enact - a consortium of wealthy individuals. Mills blamed an "overly aggressive" expansion policy and the Government's "pasty tax" for the firm's difficulties. He told BBC Radio 5 live's Wake Up to Money: "They got into a bit of trouble, so we came in. It's a fantastic brand, great product and we've saved over 200 jobs." This clip is from Wake Up To Money April 17 2014.
