Lara-based business Cheeslinks was a finalist in the Regional Business and Customer Service categories at the 2019 Deakin University Geelong Business Excellence Awards.

Cheeselinks is a family-owned enterprise based in a modern warehouse at Lara.

Established in 1986 as Home Cheesemaking Supplies, the name was changed to Cheeselinks in 1999 to reflect the increasing service provided to commercial manufacturers.

“We supply quality cheese and yoghurt making ingredients, equipment and training to both domestic and commercial cheese and yoghurt makers in Australia, New Zealand and the Asia-Pacific region,” Cheeselinks’ award entry says.

“Cheeselinks is unique in the dairy industry. Our buying power enables us to meet the huge minimum order requirements set by large, multinational suppliers which in turn enables us to sell to domestic (hobby) customers and affords us the opportunity to sell to small to medium commercial manufacturers in the quantities more economical for them.”

Cheeselinks is a family owned and operated business.

“Our dedicated and skilled staff offer excellent customer service and product knowledge to our cliental and are up to date with current best practices,” the entry says.
