In 2008, the founder and current owner launched this genuinely unique bakery. The mission was to create the best gluten-free baked goods available. Top personnel experimented with different mixes of gluten-free flours until they perfected the proportions to create products that did not taste gluten-free.
Four years ago, the company moved into its own production facility in the Bronx, doubling capacity.
The bakery's popularity started growing just as the GF (Gluten-Free) market exploded exponentially.
Business Operation
- Expansion Potential:
-
COVID forced a reevaluation of the business. It was the perfect opportunity to restructure the company strategically—the result: to focus on kosher, gluten-free products exclusively and stop all retail. Only the highest margin-contributing products remained, labor cut to key employees, and concentrated on growing the DTC segment (Direct to Consumer) & online wholesale accounts.
The company invested significant dollars in new technology to support the DTC growth and streamlined operations. As a result, the company is lean and strategically positioned for the next stage of development.
- Competition / Market:
-
People who need to eat GF will pay to get a high-end quality product. Opposite of a commodity, GF is protected by consumer necessity. Included in the assets are the all the recipes including the proprietary methods developed so the gluten-free products don't taste like so many other inferior GF items.
