Bröd & Salt was launched in 2011 when the entrepreneur Michel Mourad, 39, was captivated by the sourdough trend. At the time, he was 28 years old and had no previous experience with bakeries.
But to his credit, he has run a few restaurants in the past and a cafe in Hammarby sjöstad in Stockholm. With the help of a loan from the bank, he took over a bankrupt estate with an existing bakery.
Michel Mourad was sold on the sourdough trend
Michel Mourad also comes from a family of entrepreneurs and quickly became interested in the business model of delivering daily-fresh bread from a bakery.
– I just liked the business model of being able to produce on one unit and send out to the other units. That we didn’t have to build a bakery for each unit for the sake of logistics. Such a range did not exist, at least not in Stockholm, says Michel Mourad Nordea.
