Open a Bakery Shop

If you've ever dreamed of opening a bakery, your chances of success may be high.

If you've ever dreamed of opening a bakery, your chances of success may be high: baked goods and bakeries are among the fastest-growing industries for small businesses. In 2010, bakeries accounted for 2.1% of the US GDP.

You'll need some planning and entrepreneurial savvy, but if you're willing to work hard, you can make a name for yourself – or at least for your cupcakes and baguettes.

A baker bakes breads, pastries, pies, cakes, cookies, tarts, and other baked goods by combining raw ingredients according to recipes. Though the traditional idea of a baker is somebody who works in his own bakery and caters to a local market, nowadays, bakers may also work in specialty shops or restaurants where they produce smaller quantities for consumption at the location itself, or in manufacturing positions where they oversee the production of large quantities of goods for distribution.

Becoming a baker involves enrolling in a training program at a supermarket, or apprenticing with a craft baker to gain practical experience.
