First and foremost, we would like to express our heartfelt thanks to our loyal customers and the wonderful Burdekin community for 59 years of unwavering support. We feel incredibly fortunate to have built our business in such a special place, surrounded by the best people.
We also extend our sincere thanks to our customers and business partners in Townsville, who have supported our growth since 1995. Your loyalty and partnership have been vital to our journey.
To our beloved and valued staff over the years – there are far too many to name, but please know how deeply grateful we are to each and every one of you. To those who dedicated many years of service, you hold a very special place in our hearts. Your commitment and support have meant the world to us.
A very special thank you goes to Maria Bright, who has been an integral part of our business’s success. Maria, your dedication, hard work, and loyalty have never gone unnoticed. We truly would not be where we are today without you. Thank you for everything.
We also wish to acknowledge our parents, Shaun and Gwen Phelan, who founded Phelan’s Pies 59 years ago. It was their courage, determination, and partnership that laid the foundation for everything we’ve achieved. Their legacy lives on in every part of the business.
Lastly, we are absolutely thrilled to hand over the reins to the new owners – Paul and Kristy Hudson, Clinton and Kate Southern, and Maria Bright. We couldn’t be happier to see Phelan’s Pies continue in the hands of young, enthusiastic, and hardworking members of our community. You have our full support, and we’ll be cheering you on every step of the way. We look forward to watching your success in the years ahead.
Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.
Joy and Peter Phelan
