Coeliac Support Groups
Further information about Coeliac Disease and associated medical conditions can be found at the websites of the various national and state coeliac societies. If you have coeliac disease we strongly recommend that you join your local coeliac society. Not only do many gluten-free businesses offer discounts to members of the societies but membership allows you access to a great deal of additional information about Coeliac Disease, as well as support groups, lectures, functions, etc.
The websites of the state and national coeliac societies in Australia and New Zealand can be found below:
Major Stockists
Here you will find the websites of various retailers who stock our products. Most of the retailers listed below stock the bulk of our product range and order from us regularly, ensuring that you will find most items in stock most of the time.
The following retail chains stock our products in some, but not all, of their stores:
- Thomas Dux Grocer are stocking the Silly Yaks product range in some of their Sydney stores. They are also in the process of rebranding and refitting the old Macro Wholefoods Market stores (in both Sydney and Melbourne), which are progressively being reopened as Thomas Dux Grocer stores. If your local Thomas Dux Grocer store does not stock our products, you might like to visit their contacts page and send them an email asking them to stock our products in that particular store.
- Flannery's Natural Grocers are stocking the Silly Yaks product range in their Robina store. Obviously we'd like to see them stock our products in all of their stores, and we're pretty sure that you would too! So if you'd like to see your local Flannery's Natural Grocers store stocking the Silly Yaks range of 100% wheat free, 100% gluten free bakery goods, visit their contacts page and email them to ask them to do just that. Hopefully we'll see our products available in your local store shortly.
