W & H Marriage & Sons Ltd, known within the bakery trade as "Marriage's the Master Millers", is an independent family milling company which commenced milling flour in 1824. Marriage's has sponsored the Norfolk Baker of The Year Award since its inception and hopes that the focus on independent bakers has raised its profile. There is a significant number of exceptional independent bakeries in the Norfolk region providing high quality bread and confectionery, along with some regional specialities, all baked fresh daily. Marriage's business in Norfolk continues to do exceptionally well owing to the quality and consistency of Marriage's comprehensive range of flours and the expertise of a number of quality bakers. Marriage's philosophy remains the same today as almost 200 years ago and that is to secure the best quality wheat available; it must be high quality, protein rich wheat for bread making.
