Allan Blatch
How long have you lived in Parkes? I was born and raised here, lived in London for five years and moved back with my wife, Susannah, just over three years ago.
Where do you work? I am the owner of AA Blatch. I came came back to buy the family business from my parents to keep a Parkes icon going. We will celebrate 65 years in business in 2017.
What do you enjoy most about your job? Helping farmers solve problems.
What do you do in your spare time? Watching box sets with my wife and gardening. We were both working in TV in London and I had to watch box sets for work.
How do you like your coffee? I prefer flat white with sugar, but I am on a diet and am trying to switch to long black.
What makes your day? When supplies, freight and the weather all come together to make sure a customer is satisfied.
