We’ve been working to find a co-pack manufacturer to help us our little mandel bread business grow. The challenge has been finding the right fit. Cookie factories have minimums that are way off our target size. Smaller factories are better, but because of the economy they are all booming. That’s right, I said booming. The issue is that because of the economy people are eating out less and grocery shopping more. So manufacturers making goods for grocery stores have seen their volumes go way up, and the cost of raw materials go way down. The result? 24/7 factories are running 24/7. No time to stop the production line to do a mandel bread baking test. Beverly Hills and Fairfax have re ordered, but we are on hold until things ease up in the day job to fill the orders. Stay tuned!
