We are a family business and we have been in the meat industry for over 50 years. We specialise in bacon and gammon and that is all we sell. We are committed to bringing our customers the very best in high quality produce and excellent customer service.

It all started back in 1971 when Peter Winpenny, after working with various luminaries in the meat industry decided that striking out on his own to create and maintain a healthy business would support his growing family and help create a future for them.

When Peter’s son Paul left school, it was the natural choice to follow in his father’s footsteps and join the family workforce. Today that business continues to thrive and expand under the care of Paul and his wife Stephanie and their children. As a family the decision was made to offer the produce we manufacture online to the UK, and therefore Pig’s Might Fly was created.

We are based in West Yorkshire and we supply the whole of the UK. Just place an order and we ship our delicious bacon direct to your door!

Our bacon is carefully sourced from the EU, in particular Brittany in France, and is always cured here in England. We only use the best bacon, and our meat is always to the highest standards, and we are sure you will be delighted with our thick cut rashers.
It’s a world away from what you might be used to!

What will we send your order in? After rigorous testing of different options we chose polystyrene cool boxes and ice packs.

Did you know Polystyrene was recyclable?

Yes, Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) can be recycled and is recycled up and down the UK and around the world. It is one of the most efficient and cost effective insulating materials on the planet. Its low rate of thermal conductivity makes it super reliable for transporting temperature sensitive products.
We wanted a packaging solution that would ensure your bacon goodies reached you in tip top chilled out condition so when researching we tested various options. What we discovered was that polystyrene cool boxes kept your items in a consistently chilled condition for 48 hours and also had the added bonus of being reusable and recyclable at the same time.

Polystyrene HoCo (Hot Cold) Boxes are designed to be durable and last for years. However, if you feel they have come to the end of their life as a cool box, they don't need to end up in landfill.
EPS boxes are 100% recyclable (providing they are contaminant free) and they also have loads of alternative uses!

1. Planters for the garden. Our boxes are deep and perfect for planting veg such as carrots or potatoes! You could even grow your veg to accompany your gammon!

2. Break into big chunks and place in the bottom of window boxes, pots, tubs or hanging baskets, or under the compost. It helps with drainage, so plants don't become waterlogged. It also reduces the risk of roots freezing in winter - EPS is a great insulator!

3. As a lovely picnic hamper to keep your bacon sandwiches hot or cold (no judgment here!)

4. An impromptu hedgehog house. Pack it with a little hay to keep those hedgehogs toasty in the Winter! Or if you have cats they like to keep warm outside too (and it’s not easy getting knitted jumpers on them!)

5. Keep your valuables in when transporting them around or moving house. EPS in a great shock absorber!

6. As a garden cool box for your Prosecco or beer in the Summer (chin chin!)

7. Store your crafting stuff/paints in it, preventing spills all over your garage!

8. Make a fantastic dolls house for your kids.


We always include ice packs which you can reuse (just put it in the freezer) so if you have a nasty bump or even a headache you will always have a ready to use ice pack.
