Sally Holme has joined bakery business Bagel Nash as a non-executive director as the company seeks to develop its brand.

The move follows YFM Equity Partners’ investment in Bagel Nash in August through a management buy-in for an undisclosed sum.

Holme served as managing director of Bettys & Taylors of Harrogate from 1998 to 2009, having started her career there in 1986 as a graduate trainee. Leeds-based Bagel Nash produces 13 million bagels annually and exports to 20 countries. Holme says, ‘It’s a strong brand, with much potential for development in the UK and internationally.’
