What Are the Key Challenges Faced by UK Bakery Manufacturers?
The UK’s fast-paced lifestyle and growing working population have driven a surge in demand for ready-to-eat baked goods. This presents exciting growth opportunities for bakery manufacturers across the UK and Europe.
However, with opportunity comes complexity.
Modern bakeries face rising challenges—from increasing health awareness and fluctuating raw material costs to the shortage of skilled bakery professionals. Constantly evolving consumer trends demand innovation, personalised products, and reformulated recipes that meet nutritional expectations.
Regulatory compliance adds another layer of difficulty. UK and EU manufacturers must manage allergen declarations and adhere to strict standards like FSA, HACCP, EU Regulations, Kosher, Halal, and GMP.
To navigate these challenges, bakery ERP software like BatchMaster offers a comprehensive solution—streamlining production, ensuring traceability, and maintaining full food safety compliance.
