Bay Bread Group to manage bakery production with MonkeyFoodFactory

July 6, 2010

Bay Bread Group, parent company of the Le Boulange chain of rustic French-inspired bakeries, will deploy MonkeyFoodFactory to two wholesale bakeries for improved operational performance and increased flexibility and control over production. MonkeyFoodFactory is a software solutions package from parent company MonkeyMedia Software.

The Bay Bread Group's wholesale bakeries provide café bakery, grocery, restaurant and hotel customers with fresh pastries, organic breads and desserts using recipes from the French countryside.

“Excellent quality of food and unmatched customer service are top priorities for our company,” said Thomas Lefort, co-owner, Bay Bread Group. “As our bakery business continues to expand, it is important that we adjust to accommodate the growth by investing in technology that will help us more efficiently manage the complexities of running a bakery.”

MonkeyMedia Software currently powers La Boulange’s online ordering and catering business channels with MonkeyOnlineOrdering and MonkeyCatering.

“MonkeyCatering has transformed our catering service into a highly flexible, easily sustainable business, and we’re excited to begin implementation of their industry-leading technology on the bakery production side,” Lefort said.

With MonkeyFoodFactory, the Bay Bread Group will have the ability to facilitate and automate processes such as order and account management, recipe management, production planning and scheduling, transactional accounting and real-time reporting.

MonkeyFoodFactory also will store the Bay Bread Group’s data in a single location and provide detailed production reporting and materials management to reduce the total cost of operations.
