Cupcakery Bakerie | Application Preview
Cupcakery Bakerie is seeking government funding to further its growth and enhance operations. The funds will be allocated for essential equipment, including a fridge, deep freezer, cake ingredients in bulk, a company car for deliveries, packaging for online orders, and a small storefront.
The business plan outlines ambitious goals for the next five years. The owner plans to expand the brand's presence both virtually and locally in Charlotte, aiming to open two additional storefronts in the north and south areas of the city. Projected sales are expected to exceed $200,000 without an e-commerce platform, with the addition of such a platform anticipated to triple that figure. Strategies for growth include implementing a customer loyalty program, staying current with trends, networking, utilizing social media, and diversifying services, such as offering party rentals and event coordination.
The owner emphasizes a personal connection to the business, describing it as a lifeline during challenging times including struggles with depression brought on by the pandemic. This passion and resilience are highlighted as key reasons to approve funding. Cupcakery Bakerie differentiates itself from competitors like Swirl Cupcakes and Small Cakes Cakery through unique flavors, signature cheesecake tacos, and a distinctive doctors-themed experience.
The competitive edge lies in offering bold flavors and an interactive bakery environment, setting Cupcakery Bakerie apart from traditional bakeries.

Business Plan
In the next 5 years I plan to have Cupcakery Bakerie thriving virtually just like it is locally in Charlotte. Along with shipping desserts nation wide we plan to have at least 2 store front open located in north Charlotte as well as South Charlotte. I am projecting to bring in 200k+ In sells within the next 5 years without the e-commerce platform. The e-commerce platform will triple that number. To grow our business we will create a customer loyalty system, stay updated with the latest trends, attend networking events, leverage off of social media platforms such as Google my business, TikTok and business registry platforms, continue to do pop up shops, build more streams of incomes such as added new offers within our niche such as party rentals and event coordinations. Lastly we will continue to add diversification while focusing on our strengths and strengthening ours weaknesses. As an entrepreneur I will never give up. Cupcakery Bakerie saved my life from me taking it. Cupcakery Bakerie started as a coping skill for depression due to the pandemic. No matter how hard times have gotten I’ve never given up or thrown in the towel. I value time and never indulge in wasting any. My bakery is like no other. It’s not your average bakery. Our bakery is doctors themed. We treat sweet tooth’s with out the dentist that won’t send you to the dentist!
