A Wesfarmers' Company
In 2001, Bakers proudly became a member of the iconic Australian group, Wesfarmers. As a leading business of the Wesfarmers Industrial and Safety Division, Bakers was a natural addition to the group’s mining, gas, agricultural and hardware businesses.
Wesfarmers began in June 1914 as the Westralian Farmers Co-operative and for most of its early history was primarily involved with the provision of services and merchandise to Western Australia's rural community.
Seventy years later, with the farmers co-operative as the majority shareholder, Wesfarmers Limited listed on the Australian Securities Exchange in November 1984. Since that time Wesfarmers has consistently been ranked in the top group of Australian companies when measured in terms of total shareholder return.
