It’s always been important for us to have a positive impact on our community. We’ve always had jobs with some element of serving others, and we now look forward to opening a Great Harvest Bread Company in Michiana! We completely agree with the overall Great Harvest missions to be be loose and have fun, bake phenomenal bread, run fast to help customers, create strong and exciting bakeries, and give generously to others.
We first became fans of Great Harvest as customers. The quality fresh and tasty bread is unique to Great Harvest, and when we started thinking about opening a business in this area, we immediately thought about how our community was lacking this level of bakery. As we started working with Great Harvest, we loved the emphasis on customer service, taking care of employees, and finding ways to be actively involved with the Michiana area. We also appreciate that Great Harvest lets us be a “freedom franchise.” The “franchise” part ensures that our customers will receive the highest quality baked goods and customer service from day one. The “freedom” part lets us tailor the bakery cafe to Michiana, serving our community’s unique needs.
We look forward to opening up this summer and serving our community! In the meantime, please join our Facebook page where we’re providing construction updates, previewing the menu, and looking for ideas to make this your neighborhood bakery.
