Piggly Wiggly

Jill Egdell is now serving up delicious treats to customers six days a week from her Piggly Wiggly café. Located in Bedlington Market Place, the business has grown from strength to strength since it opened in summer 2007.

 “I’ve always collected model pigs and one day at home, the name just came to me. It sounded fun and a bit different so we just went for it and it was definitely the right choice - you have to trust your instincts.”
Jill said: “My advice to anyone thinking about setting up a business is just to go for it! Don’t let thinking about the details put you off - take advantage of the support available to new business and you could soon be your own boss.”
