THE BISKERY
A CLIENT STORY

Helping Leeds’ favourite biscuit entrepreneurs grow their personalised empire

The Background

Two aspiring female entrepreneurs, Lisa & Saskia, had a dream of turning their passion for baking into a successful business. In the early stages, they needed guidance on pricing, partnership accounts, and basic business fundamentals. We stepped in to provide the necessary support, helping them establish a solid foundation for their partnership.

“He’s super approachable and patient - I felt I could ask him anything, and that meant a lot to me.”

What Happened Next

Lisa and Saskia had a passion for baking bespoke biscuits and saw an opportunity to turn their hobby into a full-time business. With our support, they successfully transitioned from part-time bakers to full-time entrepreneurs. They began selling their unique biscuits to organisations for events and marketing purposes, allowing them to leave their previous careers behind and focus entirely on their growing business. Our guidance on business operations and financial planning played a crucial role in their successful transition.

Growth often means transformation. The Biskery, initially a partnership, transformed into a limited company as their business expanded. This change brought new challenges, including team expansion and payroll system implementation. We assisted them every step of the way, ensuring a smooth transition. With our support, they were able to manage payroll tasks efficiently and focus on their continued growth.

Rising to the Challenge

For growing businesses with increasing turnover and strong teams, the next step is often exploring new growth opportunities. The Biskery found themselves at this exciting juncture. They needed support in budgeting, forecasting, and tax-efficiency planning to navigate the complexities of their growing business. We provided the expertise required to explore and exploit market opportunities, ensuring they were well-positioned for future success.

Today, their home baking venture has flourished, proving that with the right support, dreams can indeed become reality.
