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

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.
