SPONSORS PROFILE
We are proud to sponsor Triathlon Hawke's Bay
Amanda and John Hunt are the owners of Bakers Delight in Hastings and are supporters of Triathlon Hawkes Bay and what they achieve within the Hawke's Bay Community.
Amanda said "As a supporting sponsors of the Flaxmere Primary Schools Community Triathlon its great to see kids getting out there and giving it a go with a smile on their face".
In 1980, Roger and Lesley Gillespie opened the first Bakers Delight in Hawthorn, Melbourne, with their friend Gary Stephenson.
They chose the name because they believed that every loaf, every roll, every pizza and bun should be a delight to bake, a delight to eat and the service you receive is delightful.
Now, Bakers Delight can be found in more than 700 locations across Australia, Canada, USA and New Zealand. That’s a lot of bread being baked fresh and delivered to a lot of happy customers
