“In 1997 I was asked to help a good friend of mine run the business end of a bakery. I realized that I would have to learn his whole business in order to help him. After I got done working my other job I would stop by there for an hour a day. An hour became two hours and two hours became four. Before I knew it I was working my regular job and then going to his bakery to work on the production staff for another full shift.
Over the period of that year I realized that he could not produce enough product to be profitable. A bakery came up for sale in Southfield, MI and I purchased all of the equipment. The company was formed in March of 1998. It took about a year of renovations, buying new equipment and build out, but finally we opened our doors as Bake Station Bakery “The sweetest place there is” Michigan’s finest Kosher bakery in Southfield, MI in April 1999.
