Briefly

A Dagenham bakery, Ma Bakers, has been listed for sale at £90,000 as owner Andrew Cecil prepares to retire after 36 years.

Andrew expressed sadness about leaving the community he has served, noting the strong bonds with customers. The business is marketed for individuals willing to work hard, with existing fixtures, fittings, and a lease included in the sale.
I've been here around 36 years. I don't really want to go, it's just that I'm 68 now so it's a bit of a struggle.
It's more social these days you know? You get to know people, get to know the customers, get to know what they want, how they have it.
It has changed a lot over the years but the Dagenham people are decent - friendly people I've found them. They've all been good really.
