Bakeries are a staple business in every city, providing fresh bread and sweet baked goods, as well as coffee and a place to sit and enjoy a bite. As a business, relative to the broader food service industry, they tend to be more profitable, require less real estate, have simpler food prep, and need fewer employees. All of these traits make them a good choice for small business owners.
