Tip Top operates in the retail and foodservice channels and is one of the most known and trusted brands in Australia and New Zealand. Its product offering is a market leader in packaged bread, including gluten-free, and spanning buns, rolls and bakery snacks.
This year we began a multi-million dollar upgrade and expansion of our Canning Vale, Western Australia bakery, where we produce a significant proportion of the Western Australian market’s needs. The population in the state is growing quickly and the existing site is currently at maximum capacity. We will install a new bread line with a production capacity of 8,350 loaves per hour. Overall, the upgrade will increase capacity from 44 million to 56 million loaves per year as well as raising service levels for customers and providing additional amenities on-site.
Tip Top also has a large business supplying quick-service restaurant (‘QSR’) customers. In this foodservice channel, where Tip Top is a major supplier of buns, the market is growing strongly and experiencing premiumisation as major QSR customers look to differentiate their offers. This trajectory is likely to continue: the total food service market is forecast to grow at 3.5%* for the next decade and beyond.
We are investing in our foodservice manufacturing network to keep up with demand and position ourselves for future growth. At our Springwood site in Brisbane, Queensland, we have just completed a significant upgrade to our bun and roll line to almost double our capacity from 90 million to 168 million buns per year.
