Lewis West is founder and owner of West Bakes Cookies. a husband-and-wife team that embarked on their sweet journey during the lockdown. What began as a small passion project has since blossomed into a thriving business, with West Bakes selling over 1 million cookies across the UK, US, and UAE. Their impressive list of partnerships includes well-known brands like British Sugar, Winter Wonderland, KISSFM, Fireaway Pizza, and Warner Brothers, among others. Lewis being severely allergic to nuts has never let the allergy get in the way, after having multiple close calls and reactions throughout his life, he knows first hand what it like to live with a Nut allergy, hence the protocols that have to be put in place with his cookie company.
From beginning baking in their one-bedroom apartment, West Bakes Cookies has grown to operate out of two sites—one dedicated to direct sales to the public and the other focused on manufacturing. Over the years, they’ve built a strong team of 15 talented staff members who help bring their delicious creations to life. With a commitment to quality, innovation, and customer satisfaction, West Bakes has become a beloved name in the cookie industry, continuing to expand and reach new markets.
