Both were made redundant when the bakery at The Fourways in West Mackay was closed. They purchased what was then the Baker’s Pantry with a staff of one plus
the owners in July 2003. Bushman's Bakery product range includes sliced bread and bread rolls, pies and pastries, cakes and slices as well as sandwiches, wraps and rolls. Our customers are independently owned shops and take away businesses in Mackay and the surrounding district. Our consumers expect the freshest, good quality, long lasting and great tasting products. The success of the business is dependent on delivering products which are better than anyone else’s products. Employee numbers have grown from one to thirty-two over four years.
