Movers&Shakers Ex-police officer joins Bakers Basco


Bakers Basco, the membership scheme set up by Allied Bakeries, Fine Lady Bakeries, Frank Roberts & Sons, Hovis and Warburtons to manage an industry wide bakery equipment solution, has recruited ex-Lincolnshire Police officer Stacey Brown to head up its


national investigations


team, as it continues to adopt a new strategy to investigate and retrieve missing or stolen equipment.


Brown joins Bakers Basco from Lincolnshire Police, where she served in the response team answering emergency 999 calls and, for the last six months, has worked on protecting vulnerable people and children (PVP). Up until four years ago, she worked as a bakery manager at a major Tesco Extra in the north east, having worked within Tesco since the age of 18. “Having worked in PVP, I’m well accustomed to investigations


and what that means in terms of having to explore every possible angle for leads,” said Brown. “Naturally, that requires a specific thought process which I’m now working to embed into the Bakers Basco investigations team, as our work moves beyond simply recovering equipment to investigating the who, what, why, when and how of what happens when equipment is misplaced illegally.”


The appointment comes at a time when Bakers Basco has become more streamlined and strategic in how it runs investigations to recover equipment that ends up outside the bakery supply chain – as implemented by Paul Empson, general manager, Bakers Basco, when he took the reins at the company as general manager in 2020.
