Bakery announces plans to 'scale back'

A local bakery says it's having to 'scale back' amid what it's described as a 'bumpy ride'.

Noa Bakehouse has taken to social media to confirm the news.

It says 'making honest bread naturally, and sustainably is expensive on the Island'. 

The company currently has a coffee shop, seasonal beach kiosk, roastery, mobile van and runs events locally - but says it now needs to 'tighten the seat belts for a bump ride'.

However, it adds at a time of crisis - it isn't bailing or giving up - but the opposite - by investing in people and its own business.

Earlier this year, Noa's announced plans to takeover the ground floor of the Peveril Building in Douglas - to be used as a bakery and coffee shop.

In the post, it says the new bakehouse will showcase 'the last decade' as it celebrates ten years in business next January.

Further, as the company moves into 2023, Noa's say it will have 'smaller batch sizes, larger ranges and seasonal products' so it's not all bad news. 

Its products will still be available in IOM Creamery deliveries, Shoprite stores, Robinsons and EVF Alexander Drive 

Lastly, the business says it wants to assure customers it's 'not closing, bailing and will continue to invest, pivot and adapt because we love what we do and we believe real bread is the future.'
