- This region is a rapidly growing tourist destination and commuter/vacation town serving the Los Angeles, CA and San Diego, CA metro areas. The national park sees nearly 3 million visitors annually and has a severe shortage of dining options. Based on data from the United States Census Bureau and the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Joshua Tree, CA has fewer eating and drinking establishments per annual population than its surrounding county (San Bernardino, CA), state (California, USA), and the nation as a whole (USA). In addition, when considering seasonal visitors, Joshua Tree, CA has far fewer eating and drinking establishments than comparable cities. Joshua Tree, CA has three times (3x) fewer eating and drinking establishments than Mammoth Lakes, CA; eight times (8x) fewer than Sedona, AZ; sixty-eight times (68x) fewer than Bishop, CA; and over one hundred times (>100x) fewer eating and drinking establishments per seasonal population than Truckee, CA (i. e.

Bakery Franchise Opportunity
I Love Babycakes, 3 Franchisees, Est'd in 2009, Mumbai HQ
- 8000+ Page Views
- 3000+ Investor Views
"I Love Babycakes" is a bakery running in Mumbai for 10 years and now launched in Hong Kong since January 2019. We specialize in cupcakes, teacakes, theme cakes, cookies, dessert jars, DIY baking kits. The bakery was started in Mumbai from a home kitchen in August 2009. We now have our own centralized commercial kitchen in Mumbai with a production capacity of over 1,500 cupcakes a day. We have retail presence in several prominent locations in Mumbai city. Other than supplying to cinemas we are also the official cake partners for the global kids theme park brand KidZania in Mumbai. We also take a number of personalized orders for baked products with many celebrity clients on our list. Other than this, we have our own online store and are present in various online food ordering platforms.
We started the brand in Hong Kong in January of 2019 and it has seen a tremendous response with very quickly being listed as among the best cake brands in the city. We also conduct a host of baking classes regularly for children and adults alike at our kitchen in Hong Kong.
We intend to take the brand "I Love Babycakes" to major cities in India and consequently outside of India to incorporate a cafe cum shared cloud kitchen model. The idea is to have a space with commercial kitchen equipment (with our brand name) where chefs and bakers can cook / bake and pay rent on an hourly basis to use. The space will also have an option for diners to come and dine on an all day dining menu. This space can also be rented out for baking / cooking classes to be hosted by the participating chefs where part of the proceeds will go to the owner. This model will allow self generating rents that can be used towards monthly operating expenses.
Having run successfully in India for the last 10 years, we are now looking at using the franchising model to further our reach. We are looking at increasing our presence in major cities of India and across the globe following the above model.
The goodwill of the Company and its popularity in Mumbai makes it an attractive choice. The freshness of the baked goods and the fun and creative nature of the brand makes it a brand of choice for interested franchisees.
