Business Description
The Company was founded in 2019 as a premium cookie provider and opened their first retail bakery in 2021. Headquartered in metro-Atlanta, GA, the Company has quickly validated their unique business model and has positioned the business well for franchising. They have two company-owned stores that operate in high-traffic locations and offer fresh-baked cookies daily. They currently use one location to supply cookies to the other location, but the growth model is to have each location capable of their own on-site dough preparation and baking using cost-effective assets to minimize the start-up and operating costs. They offer more that 50 different cookie flavors and rotate them monthly as well as seasonally to incent repeat customer visits. They have ~13 employees and are poised to build on their success from walk-ins and word-of-mouth advertising, as well as their extensive and growing following on Instagram and other social media.

Growth Opportunities:
The company produces unique "specialty" cookies that offer differentiated flavors vs. most cookie establishments. They have quickly earned a following for their high-quality products and exceptional customer service, and their strategically placed locations make repeat walk-in traffic a key to their ongoing success.
Growth opportunities include...
1) Amplify Digital & Influencer Marketing - Marketing expenses for the most recent twelve month period was

Facilities & Assets
There are two retail establishments that are leased and located in high traffic areas within easy walking distance to densely populated residential communities. One store utilizes a "walk-in" concept that offers seating where customers can enjoy their cookies. The other store utilizes a "kiosk" concept where customers purchase the cookies in a "food hall" type setting and enjoy them on-the-go. Both concepts have been proven to be commercially successful and offer flexible growth potential that can be customized for a particular retail environment.
Market Outlook / Competition
The confectionary market is a popular and growing segment of the retail food space. This relatively low cost "guilty pleasure" item makes the cookie retailer a go-to destination for shoppers looking for an inexpensive dessert after a dinner out or simply a snack while shopping on the go. This company offers an exceptional combination of taste and a variety of flavors in a cookie that is relatively low calorie (~300 each) yet satisfying.
