History
Simon Ip and his brother Kenneth run the Breadtop business across Australia. They opened the first Breadtop bakery in
Box Hill, Victoria in 2002 and have since opened 70 stores — most of them franchises — across the country.
In 2014 Breadtop launched a self-audit process to review its 800 employees' pay following a series of complaints of underpayment by foreign students that led to backpayments of $2000 to two of the complainants.
In February 2021, Breadtop signed a deal with Australian supermarket chain
Coles to supply a range of its products to supermarkets in New South Wales and Victoria.
