How to create a bread baking business

The bakery industry occupies a leading place in the food industry. And this is no accident, because bread is a commodity of prime necessity and is always in demand. Despite the fact that large enterprises occupy a large share of the bread market, a mini-bakery can also win part of it. Indeed, its undoubted advantage is the freshness of bread, which can be sold in nearby stores, as well as the possibility of manufacturing small-piece and exclusive products.

Instruction manual

1

In order to open a bread baking business, you must first find a suitable room. Its requirements are established by the SES rules, the main of which is the need to separate “clean” and “dirty” production flows. Remember that, according to experts, the production of 1 ton of bakery products requires an area of ​​at least 150-200 square meters. When choosing a room, consider its location. It’s good if it is a point with a lot of people passing, located, for example, near the metro, train station, airport or in a densely populated sleeping area.

After choosing a room, you must get a "Sanitary and epidemiological conclusion on the production." In the SES, you must also assure the range of products. In addition, you will need to obtain permission from the fire and environmental inspection. At the very beginning of your work, register as an individual entrepreneur, purchase and register a cash register at the tax office.

3

Buy equipment. To open a bakery, you will need a convection oven, a rackset, a heat showcase, a dough mixer, stainless steel trays, a freezer, if you plan to use frozen semi-finished products in production. You will also need transport for transporting bread.

4

Conclude agreements with suppliers for the purchase of raw materials. As a rule, the assortment begins to form from 4-5 types of products and gradually expands. Recipes and the requirements of potential buyers must be taken care of in advance.

Hire staff. To install and run the equipment, invite professional technologists. In the future, four people can work at the bakery, working two per shift. In addition, you will need an accountant, driver and director, who at the initial stage can serve as a sales manager.
