ohn took over the reins in April, and says heโ€™s looking forward to expanding the associationโ€™s member-base.

โ€œThe industry needs a strong voice like the BAA at the moment, because there are so many different kinds of regulations the government can put on the food industry,โ€ John says.

โ€œItโ€™s important to have the expertise to expose or amend government regulations that just arenโ€™t practical, as well as the resources to represent bakers in industrial relations matters.โ€

The BAA also hopes to use Johnโ€™s experience in the baking industry to further strengthen ties with Victorian TAFE colleges and training centres.

โ€œAs part of the food industry training network, the association is a useful go-between body between bakers and the TAFE colleges, in terms of sharing information on the kinds of training new bakers need,โ€ John says.
