We want to interact with our customers beyond Instagram, WhatsApp messages and emails.”
Having a physical store would allow him to sell a “wider range of products”, including “functional food items that cater to certain dietary needs and age groups” as well as a wider repertoire of bread and pastries. He is currently looking for a suitable location to set up shop, and is also working on getting halal certification for his business.
In the meantime, he says: “We have also been taking on engagements for customised corporate giftings and special events like weddings,gift boxes and other private parties. We’re so grateful for the trust that these customers have placed in us!”8days.sgAccording to Daniel, Becks, who also bakes and cooks, “opens doors for partnership”. He points out that he faces challenges as a small business owner, and realised that collaborations were crucial for him.
Meanwhile, Daniel and Becks’ mum “manages finances and regulatory matters, and our sister Melissa actively contributes to R&D”. Daniel himself is married, though his wife Elizabeth has her own day job. He adds, “My wife has been a constant source of encouragement and a rock for me to lean on when things were rough. It's truly a team effort, and we take immense pride in our work.”
