History of George Weston Foods
For over 50 years, GWF has enjoyed great success building our Australian and New Zealand businesses and cementing many of its iconic brands as some of the most recognisable and loved.
From our early beginnings primarily as a baking company, GWF has grown into one of Australia and New Zealand’s largest food manufacturers. We now employ close to 9,000 employees in almost 60 sites across Australia and New Zealand.
Many of our iconic brands, like Tip Top®, DON® and Golden™, have been a part of both Australia and New Zealand’s national heritage for over 50 years. We produce around a million units of baked products every day, which are consumed by over 75 percent of Australian households.
Today, GWF is a modern food manufacturing company. We have grown through our successful development of new markets, new categories and product innovation. We have also strengthened and developed our business via acquisition of high quality companies, and are constantly looking for new opportunities to grow and add value to the business.
Above all, we look to the consumer to guide us as we develop our brands and innovate our products.
At GWF, we are extremely proud of our heritage and excited about our future.
