THE LEAN BAKERY – In this video, a shop coordinator explains how the 365 bakeries were able to speed up service to customers and ensure product quality by reorganizing work and responsibilities.


Interviewee: Aida Llevot, Shop Coordinator, 365.café - Barcelona


Our bakeries are all about work organization, as in our minds this is the only way to keep the product up to standards and the service to customers speedy.

The biggest change we brought in after lean came into the picture was a clear division of tasks and competences within our shops, as per the image below.
