Kellogg’s Manchester Factory is set to feature in an hour-long BBC documentary unveiling the secrets behind the cereal giant’s iconic products.
The first episode of BBC Two’s Inside The Factory: How Our Favourite Foods Are Made, will air later this year.
The show features presenters Gregg Wallace and Cherry Healey talking to the Kellogg’s characters responsible for making one million packs of Corn Flakes, Coco Pops, Rice Krispies and Crunchy Nut every day.
The show will chart the journey of the world’s most commonly produced grain: corn.
Viewers will discover the process of drying, flaking, milling and toasting that produces Kellogg’s Corn Flakes, which are then developed into Kellogg’s Crunchy Nut and Frosties before being shipped out to retailers.
More than 400 people are employed at the factory, a local landmark that was built in 1938 in Trafford.
To produce billions of pounds worth of cereal every year, the factories machinery runs for 24 hours a day, producing up to 34 million kilograms of Corn Flakes annually.
Kellogg’s Manchester Factory director Tony O’Brien, said: “It was an incredible experience to welcome the BBC to our factory. We are extremely proud of the food we produce in Manchester, which is enjoyed by families all over the world.
“Only a few simple steps are involved in the making of our food, and we can’t wait to share them with millions of viewers.”
Kellogg’s Manchester factory – the largest cereal factory in Europe – has been producing family favourite food for over 75 years.
The programme will air on 26 July at 8pm on BBC Two.
