Verified Reviewer |Complaint About Staff Member/Franchisee
Have not heard one word back from them. No response, nothing.
Good morning, I have a complaint about a staff member/franchisee in one of your depots, near Winterhaven. I am chasing the contact number or email address of the Warehouse Manager/Supervisor so I can lodge the complaint directly.
Thanks kindly
Melinda Wiegmann
- Most products are great
- Behaviour of franchisee and family member appalling
Preferred solution: Action taken by the driver/Franchisee to address my complaint, and Flowers Foids to acknowledge that this type of behaviour is not acceptable by their employees and/or family members.
User's recommendation: If you have a complaint they obviously don't want to even hear it. Why a complaints policy if they can't be bothered.
Consumer education
Your bread products have been changed this past year. They added tons of preservatives to lengthen the shelf life to 30 days. They spent a whole 3ish weeks testing it at most facilities.
User's recommendation: Research independent companies, buy local, or make it yourself.

Verified Reviewer |Complaint about a product. Classic White Wonderbread
Have been using this for years and years, mostly because of brand name. Always the one my other bought and my brothers and I grew up with and is still in her home.
This is the 3rd or 4th time I have purchased Wonder Bread and a few days later it was molded and had to be thrown away. The package I have in my hand says "Best Used by April 4." Today is April 7. I started to make sandwiches and was embarrassed by the fact the bread I was holding had molded. The conditions it in which it was kept was no different that it has ever been.
I do want to emphasize that it is not the price of the bread about which I am angry. It is the fact that I have been buying it for so many years based on brand loyalty and it has put me in an embarrassing situation. You can't imagine beginning to make sandwiches for a church pot luck only to find it won't happen in a timely manner. I only hope that someone in Customer Service will read this.
I dare say if others are having this problem (and not reporting it as I usually would not) it will not be long until your profits will suffer.
I realize one person will not affect your company at all - no matter how many of your name brand products are used, but as the numbers grow so will profits drop. You have taught this 75 year old woman that "Brand Loyalty" is no longer important to your company.
- Items produced by flowers are well known and used by generations

User's recommendation: Do not purchase because of brand loyalty. Try other brands.
Need Tax Document for former employee, no response
The difference between Flowers Voice Mail and writing to Santa Claus is that there REALLY IS a Santa Claus and he reads every letter.

Bread
I am pleased with the way the issue was address and handle .I highly recommend flowers bakery and all products
They suck
Managers disrespectful two employs suck suck
Preferred solution: Apology
Covid 19
Flowers Bakery the makers of Natures Own Bread has THE WORST WAREHOUSES. Some of their employees are so nasty and show a lack of disregard on this pandemic.
There are bird and rat droppings throughout the warehouses.
This company doesnt Comply with Covid 19 regulation. They allow employees to work while sick with disregard to other employees.
User's recommendation: Don’t buy their products at this time.
Change brand
Bread Slices are getting soooo small !! Machine change ???
Used to make a perfect sized sandwich !! What happened ?????
Tastes funny
Bought a pack of mrs freshleys powderd dohnuts. Taste like some sort of chemicals. Disgusting

Mrs. Freshley's "Delicious Deals" Powdered Sugar Mini-Donuts have strong chemical taste/smell!!
I found the following page via google search... https://hostess-brands.pissedconsumer.com/mrs-freshleys-mini-donuts-powdered-chemical-smell-201511****3233.html TWO YEARS LATER...
Sept 11, 2017. Today, Sept 11, 2017, I experienced the very same problem with these donuts. The first I figured was a fluke... the second had an even stronger chemical taste.
The donuts didn't have much of a scent to them, but once realized, you can instantly tell there is a significant aura, taste/smell, of paint thinner or some similar smelling chemical. Displeasing at minimum, but I absolutely concern for the safety of consumers when a food product tastes like chemicals! Unacceptable!!! Mrs.

Also just opened a package of these donuts and smelled some sort of chemical smell inside the hole of the donuts appeared to be some kind of fibers like mold.
I had the same exact experience after my daughter purchased Mrs Freshley's powdered donuts.
They had a very strong chemical smell.
Why hasn't the FDA pulled these from stores?
I will NEVER EVER buy any product by Mrs Freshleys or Flowers Foods Specialty Group, LLC, 5087 South Royal Atlanta Dr., Tucker, GA 30084
