The importance of food to the existence of human race cannot be overemphasised. Food must be available in the right quantity, right quality and at the right time for human beings to have meaningful existence. It is against this background that all efforts must be made to promote food and allied productions.
Bread is a major product of bakery and about the most demanded all over the world. The implication of this is that demand for bread is automatic. Consumption of bread cuts across all ages, gender and races. Bread is taken virtually every minute. It can be taken as breakfast, or lunch or even as a dinner. It is a ready-made food that does not demand further preparation except for those who want to toast it.
Raw materials for bread production are readily available. The major raw material is wheat flour, which is heavily imported into the country. Bakery can be managed by middle or low-level manpower. The ease of set up needs not be over flogged.
