HAPPY Birthday to you . . . staff from Mansfield family bakers Geoff Webster, on Church Street, celebrate their 50th anniversary with Mansfield district councillor Tom Appleby, right.
The company was founded by Geoff Webster and his wife Beryl, second right, at premises in Forest Town in 1958, with products sold on Mansfield market.
They then opened their Derby Street bakery in the early 1960s and also operated from Mansfield Food Hall for many years, while they opened the current shop in 1982.
Mr Webster died in 2001, but the business has been kept going by his wife, with a stall being opened in Sutton's Indoor Market in 2005.
To mark the anniversary, a free prize draw will be held next week .
Pictured are other family members who work at the business, from left, Elaine Hibbert, Robert Scothon, Sally-Ann Davis and Rebecca Scothon.
