Bakers Delight
Bakers Delight is a large Australian-owned bakery franchise chain with outlets locally and also in New Zealand and Canada. It was established in 1980 as a single bakery on Glenferrie Road in the Melbourne suburb of Hawthorn, Victoria. Bakers Delight has over 700 bakeries globally. Bakers Delight entered the Canadian market in 2003, under the name COBS Bread, and now has over 100 bakeries in 5 provinces. All of the United States bakeries were shut down after an attempt to enter the US market was unsuccessful; however, as of 2016, Cobs is beginning to franchise locations in the United States.
