J G Ross (Bakers) Ltd of Inverurie were on a roll at the weekend after picking up three product awards and being crowned Retail Baker of the Year in the prestigious Scottish Baker of the Year Awards following a gala celebration in Glasgow.
In the morning roll category, the company won the Best in Region Gold Award for its softie, a bronze award for its seeded softies, and a national bronze award for its buttery.
The pinnacle of the evening was being crowned Retail Baker of the Year.
“We were absolutely delighted at winning these awards which reflect our commitment to staff development, emphasis on craft skills, investment in premium ingredients and continual reinvestment in our business,” said Cameron Ross, Product Director.
“Despite the economic challenges we have purchased additional larger shops in Mastrick and Banchory and completely refurbished them to offer a wider range of products. We have achieved growth by extending opening hours and making a range of our products available via online delivery partners,” added Graeme Ross Commercial Director.
