How the 365 bakeries improved service to clients with lean
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.
In this video I explain what the roles of workers A, B, C and D are, while our Retail Manager Emi Castro will tell you how we ensure the work runs smoothly and the results keep on coming.
Bon profit!
