Mr. Bahar, who previously worked as a marketing employee at a pharmaceutical company for 5 years, was determined to become a baker. This business was started from the complaints of stalls owners around his house, who required different taste of bread.
Based on this, Mr. Bahar swerved to try making a bakery that offers different taste from others. Precisely in November 2011, even though he had not mastered how to make bread, Mr. Bahar did not lose his determination to be independent. He invited a friend who worked in a bakery to build a bakery business pioneered by Mr. Bahar with a sharing system.
“In the past, when I started this business, I used a manual machine to make bread. Over the years, I have had more orders than usual. I have to work hard to meet customers’ demands. If I continue this method, there was a concern that customers will switch to another factory because the orders would be delayed“ said Mr. Bahar.
It was the incident that made Mr. Bahar decided to buy more modern tools. However, because the machine’s price was not cheap and the capital to buy this tool was not possible, Mr. Bahar decided to seek working capital loans from financial institutions. In 2017, Mr. Bahar received a working capital loan from Bank Sahabat Sampoerna. His desire to have more sophisticated tools finally materialized.
