James Baxter is a pastry chef and owns a small bakery in Adelaide. James wants to grow his brand nationally and compete with chains like Pie Face, Brumby’s, Michel’s

Patisserie and Bakers Delight. He has also considered selling through Coles and Woolworths bakery options or creating high end specialty stores like Adriano Zumbo’s.

If you are not familiar with Adriano Zumbo’s business (or perhaps only know his recipes), then this article from Business Spectator

(http://www.businessspectator.com.au/article/2011/10/21/resources-and-energy/sweet-talk-adrianozumbo) should assist you.
