BIAQ History

The Master Baker’s Association was founded in 1891 and consolidated in 1901 to form the Bread Manufacturers Association of Queensland Union of Employers.

The Pastrycooks Association of Queensland was started separately in 1947 and continued until 1992 when a new structure was put in place to join the bread manufacturers and pastrycooks together.

The Baking Industry Association of Queensland (BIAQ) was thus founded and now in 2010, the BIAQ has gone from strength to strength with the direction of strong and diverse board and a team of expert in-house staff.
