What do you make of Volare's growth story?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

In a move that marks a significant milestone in its journey, Volare, one of the country’s fastest-growing artisan bakeries, has shifted into a sprawling new factory with the capacity to quadruple production.

What began as a two-person dream in a converted garage has flourished into a thriving business employing nearly 150 people and fuelling a bread-loving community across Waikato and beyond.

I've got freedom from eating and thinking about food

From an early age I knew I was different with food. I only have one sibling, a brother, and we were brought up just the same, but I could tell I was very different from him with food.
When we were given lollies, I would eat mine straight away. He would put his in his bedroom drawer and make them last, until eventually they would drive me crazy and I would have to eat them too!
