About Us

newStreet Publishers

Newstreet Publishers (Pty) Ltd opened its doors in 1996. Owner and managing editor June Maurhart, known and respected for many years in the publishing world, knew precisely which titles she wanted to launch and when!

The Taverner

The first publication to see the light of day was The Taverner, launched in November of that first year. From inception the magazine was positioned to embrace the needs of the diverse reader base in the on-consumption market. Her philosophy was and still is that it didn’t matter whether the reader was based in Sandton or Soweto, he or she needed to know about new product launches, how to mix a mean cocktail, look after keg or bottled beer, serve the best food, pair food and liquor, and how to run a more efficient operation. In a nutshell, anything and everything that would make life a little easier and certainly more entertaining.

The Taverner recently celebrated a millennium of good cheer, hard work and heartwarming support from the industries it serves. The Taverner is published quarterly. Posted publications are addressed to the owner/managers of pubs, taverns, bars, sports and social clubs, and restaurants.

Non-posted copies are distributed through wholesale liquor outlets dealing specifically with the trade. Copies are also made available to various tavern associations, including SALTA, and their members throughout the country. Circulation of The Taverner is 7 500.

The editor of the Taverner is Thea Fox on (011) 447 1192 or e-mail newstrthea@mweb.co.za

The Baker Magazine

The Baker emerged three short months later in early 1997 – its target market the professional baking and milling sectors. It has during its ten-year history earned the respect of its reader base for its informative and trustworthy editorial. The editorial coverage is as diverse as the industries it serves, carrying   information on specialised ingredients, in-depth features, e.g. Mills and Milling, Bread Plant Systems, Water Chilling, In-store Bakeries, POS, Lubrication, Packaging, Pies and Pastry, Ovens and Ancillary Equipment etc. Other topics embrace Warehousing, Transport, HACCP, Labour Issues, Insurance, Finance and International News. In short, there’s something of interest for everyone.

The Baker, in A5 format, is published monthly from February to November. In December a Year Planner highlighting local and international baking shows is produced, and in January The Baker Annual Buyers Guide is published in an A4 format. The latter has grown in size and structure in recent years and is the acknowledged “bible” of the industries it serves. The circulation of the magazine
is 7 500.

The editor of The Baker is Monique Terrazas on (011) 447 1192 or 084 864 7024 or e-mail, monique@hitechmarketing.co.za

The Baker Website

Building on the success of The Baker magazine this website was launched in late 2003. This venture was prompted by the growing belief and confidence in Internet communication – a belief unequivocally shared by Newstreet Publishers.
