The Great Marmite Heist

By: Seamus Waldron Published: 25 November 2010

Last week thieves broke into a warehouse in West Yorkshire and stole over £60,000 worth of Marmite Christmas stock, including 15,000 bars of the newly launched chocolate bar which at this stage is critical – high-peak Christmas season / limited edition and stock available.

Fully aware that this might sound like a "far-fetched story" I can assure you it happened. On this note, anyone with information can call West Yorkshire Police on 0845 60 60 606 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111. More soon.
