Examples
In-House Training
We were asked to provide 3 weeks of full-time experience for an overseas baker/business person.
ABA organised in-house training at one of Australia's most prestigious sourdough bakeries. The baker provided all training and intellectual property required to 'hit the ground running' for a new artisan bakery.
Workplace Training
A very successful bakery asked us to help them introduce artisan bread to their range. Our consultant worked with management and staff to provide recipes and skills to make sourdough, ciabatta and a variety of French and longer ferment breads.
Staffing
An Australian bakery contracted us to provide a key 'Head Baker' to get their new bakery concept up and running. We secured them a proficient artisan baker who has proven highly capable and has successfuly managed the bakery for more than 2 years.
Requirements
Consultancies are completely confidential. We only accept projects that are of clear benefit to the artisan baking community.
