Meet Jo Carruthers.
Together with her husband, she owns Riverina Wholesale Bakery. They’ve been running bakeries since they bought Lake Village Bakery five years ago. Due to Lake Village Bakery’s popularity, they outgrew its capacity and purchased Riverina Wholesale Bakery to supply local businesses. They currently supply baked goods to local IGAs, Foodworks, cafes and schools.
The next big target for Riverina Wholesale Bakery is working with bigger supermarkets. When Veridia first approached Jo, they said ‘I want to help you grow your business,’ so it was ideal from the start. Jo says “We were quite surprised by how vast the supplies were [Veridia] does with every scope.”
A key part of growing Riverina Wholesale Bakery is their marketing. They turned to Veridia for branded coffee cups to spread their logo in the wider community. Jo had previously worked with another supplier, and found it ‘quite complex… and hard to follow up.’ But with Veridia, Jo understands the choices she’s making and the process she needs to take.
“We feel that marketing our coffee cups is going to be a lot better process this time around because we have the options we were never given before… So it’s making sure that your customer understands the product and that’s what Veridia does for us. They make us understand what’s available, and we’re given the options on how we can make it happen with Veridia’s help.”
