Among the phases included in the process, the several are included: obtaining the necessary permits, preparing the space, hiring and training the staff, choosing the right equipment, distribution methods, producing and selling bread, adapting to the market requirements, etc.


Once set up, players take charge of monthly production decisions. They can monitor the bakery's performance through straightforward financial reports, adjusting strategies as needed to ensure growth and sustainability. The aim is to obtain profitability in the course of 36 months, while positively impacting society and reducing the environmental footprint of the business.


A Fun Way to Master Entrepreneurship

Students will learn about setting up and running a business, about using resources in an efficient manner and about making profit while also being mindful of the needs of the community. They can be so absorbed in the game that they will not even know they are learning! 


Startup Quest Bakery can also serve as an educational tool for youth in non-formal education settings, helping players develop personal and professional skills. They will not only enrich their entrepreneurship skills, but also gain essential competencies such as critical thinking, social responsibility and decision making.
