Through this project, I immersed myself into their business to learn the internal, external strategies and their leadership. I explored how the determined the layout of the facility for maximum efficiency, how they determined their service and product, how they work with their suppliers, their strategy for forecasting demand, the leadership and structure of their business by interviewing their manager, John’s daughter, Mary. As a small business in lacey, they do not have too much competition. As a result, they put emphasis on the internal strategies in order to provide better service. The baked goods at John's Bakery are either homemade or made from a mix they ordered through their supplier, BakeMark. They have had the same recipes and items for the past thirty years. They do not branch out and create new products often. However, when they design a new recipe, they used quality function deployment (QFD), taking requests and recommendations from their loyal customers. Next, they pick one or two...

...around 8,000 BC. Then during the middle ages, each landlord has a bakery, which is a public oven. Housewives would prepare the dough and bring it to the baker who would lend the oven and bake the dough into bread.(http:www.nybakas.com) However, Vicent Van Dough (1882) forwarded the idea of the historical background of a bakery. He stated that the first evidence of baking occurred when human took wild grasses, soaked them in water and mixed everything together, making it into a kind of broth-like paste. The paste was cooked by pouring it into a flat, hot rock, resulting as a bread like substance. Later, this paste was roasted in hot embers which made bread making easier as it could now be made any time fire was available.(Anders Zom 1889) Seven years later, Zom reported that baking is food cooking method using prolonged dry heat acting by convection rather than by thermal radiation , normally in an oven, but also in a hot ashes or hot stove. In about 300 B.C., baking flourished wide in Rome. Later, it became a highly respected profession because of the higher demand of pastries during festivity and celebration . Thus, pastries were cooked for large banquets. In baking, the Romans used an oven with its oven chimney and hard grainmills to grind grain into flour. Bakers became popular and well known in Rome, thus the art of baking spread to the...

Determining the amount of baked goods that would be sold would have helped her understand the space necessary for purchase. After determining the market need, research on the premises, location, prices, and other pertinent information should be obtained to ensure that the proper capacity is used for the physical premises of Biddy’s Bakery. 2.

...My family is in the process of re-opening a small business to the north of Atlanta, Georgia call The Cake Shoppe (bakery). We are in the middle of a complete re-model, and this section has been very enlightening for me as I assist them. I found that one of the most important concepts for The Cake Shoppe, especially during this remodel, is technological forces (pg 67), which is defined as “inventions or innovations from applied science or engineering research” (Kern, Hartley, & Rudelius, 2012, pg 67). The previous owners did not use social media or advertise at all, so the new branding of our new products and lines, social media networking and electronic commerce, which is “any activity that uses some form of electronic communiciation in the inventory, exchange, advertisement, distribution, and payment of goods” (Kern, Hartley, & Rudelius, 2012), will be extremely important. We are in the process of re-vamping our logos to make them more appealing for the website, creating social media accounts for the bakery, and even producing online advertising via social networking, online giveaways, and e-mail coupons. Utilizing online savings websites like Groupon and Living Social to promote our business has boosted sales tremendously. Another very important concept is competitive forces (pg 68). Competition is “alternative firms that could provide a product to satisfy a specific market’s needs” (Kern, Hartley, & Rudelius, 2012, pg 68). I believe that attracting customers is...

...Dieter decided to quit working for hotels and to start his own business, Dieter’s Delectables Ltd., with himself as president and general manager. This new company operated in a similar manner to Dieter’s Delicacies, in that it did not produce goods, but rather operated in the distribution and wholesale business. Dieter’s purchased its entire product line from Browne’s Bakery, with whom Dieter had established a very satisfactory working relationship, and distributed and resold these to a variety of retail outlets under the company’s own private label brand of Dieter’s Delicacies. In its first year of operation, Dieter’s Delectables’ sales were $150,000. As its reputation for quality and customer service spread, sales grew rapidly, in large part due to Dieter’s knowledge and his personal selling efforts, as well as effective merchandising techniques. In 2002, some larger grocery chain stores began to merchandise Dieter’s products under their own private labels, boosting sales further. By 2005, sales had reached $1,500,000 and the company employed 9 customer service representatives. By 2005, Dieter’s purchases from Browne’s Bakery had grown to the point that they represented 21% of Browne’s total production for the year. In the spring...

...Since I have nothing to relate to this book, the experience I had while reading this book was incredible. While reading the book, I gained knowledge that can be used for a lifetime. The novel made me stop and think about my attitude and the impact it has on others. Jay Asher is a fabulous writer that explains reality in a convincing way. He uses such precise detail that I often connect with the situations included. I finished this novel in 4 days, meaning that it was almost impossible to set it down, alongside all of the things I have. The setting, plot, and characters were phenomenal. Although this book was breathtaking, I was disappointed to see that Hannah Bakers parents were not involved. I was left questioned at whether her parents were able to bear the grief and sadness. The marvelous novel of Thirteen Reasons Why is written by Jay Asher. They say dead girls don’t talk, but that’s where they’re wrong. They talk, but most people are too scared to listen. Hannah’s dead. Two weeks after Hannah Baker’s death, Clay Jensen hears her voice one last time-on a “Baker’s dozen” of cassette tapes she made. Seven double side tapes with thirteen stories of thirteen people-thirteen people who killed her. Clay was mailed Hannah’s obscure suicide note because he's one of the reasons that she died. That she killed herself, one of the reasons she gave up. On the tapes she explained that her death started with a rumor and the reputation the rumor gave her, highlighting the connections...

...INTRODUCTION Consumers perceive that small bakeries offer convenience, personal service, and fresher, better quality products. In general, bakery sales increase when consumers’ average income increases. The industry is highly competitive, making it very difficult to start a new bakery, especially in cities. An entrepreneur might consider buying an existing business or locating in a rural area. One of the fastest growing areas in the bakery business is the specialty franchise store, producing everything from donuts to complete product lines. For specific information on franchising, refer to Franchising PH guide. A bakery is one of the few businesses where manufacturing and retailing are performed by the same people. You have to be an exceptional baker and business person producing and selling distinctive goods. Get experience in both areas before starting, including areas such as management and accounting. If you buy an existing bakery, carefully evaluate the opportunity. Study the reasons for selling and assess potential profits, sales, expenses, assets and liabilities. Consult with an expert about the condition of the bakery equipment. Ask a lawyer to review any agreement. If you start a new bakery, do the same kind of careful assessments and consult with an accountant and a lawyer. Refer to the Service Business Plan book. Expect early mornings, long days and hard physical work. Sales fluctuate during the year and you will be busiest during special days and holidays. According...

The Trust Account was set up to meet the requirements of the Wheat Industry Research Levies Act 1989 and to identify and make recommendations to the NZAB Executive. The NZAB Executive has legal responsibility for administering the Trust, and other levy payers on research projects. The BIRT committee is made up of representatives from the various levy paying sectors. These include plant bakers, small bakeries represented by the Baking Industry Association of New Zealand (BIANZ) (Baking Society) and biscuit manufacturers, as well as the Chair of the New Zealand Flour Milling Industry Research Trust. The two sectors frequently combine on research projects. Copies of completed research reports are available to all levy payers and BIRT would encourage all industry members to take advantage of research conducted on their behalf. Since the formation of the Trust in 1989, a key aspect of the Trust’s work has been to ensure that the research conducted is appropriate for the Industry sector the Trust represents.
