This vision is driven by the understanding of the impacts small and medium scale businesses can have in our country as engine of job creation and enablers of wealth distribution”, he said.

He said during the three weeks training period, students were taught the science of baking ingredient, common bread fault, and how to solve them, how to maximize baker output through the production of different bread varieties, basic selling, marketing, finance and people management tips.
