Over twenty years of helping bakeries grow through trusted partnerships and innovative solutions.
Since 2003, Bakery Combinations has

After a few years working at Rademaker, John van Heusden moved to Australia to start Bakery Combinations to fill in a gap in the market to provide industrial bakery solutions to the ANZ region. Initially starting out as exclusive agents for Rademaker, Sancassiano and Koenig, he started working on large industrial projects with leading ANZ baked goods manufacturers.
Our focus has always been on turnkey projects, and in 2006 we marked the 1st large turnkey project done by Bakery Combinations, producing the iconic meat pie in New Zealand.
Two more major turnkey industrial projects producing 3 tonnes of dough per hour were installed in Victoria and New Zealand for pastries and croissants.
Bakery Combinations became the exclusive agents for Technosilos and Tecnopool. The 5th major turnkey project was installed in New South Wales, again for pastries and croissants, running 3 tonnes of dough per hour.
The 6th major turnkey project was finalised for artisan bread in Queensland, operating at 3 tonnes of dough per hour.
