I'm loving this Gail's expansion news 
! It's great to see a UK bakery chain killing the game, especially when they're focusing on nutrient-dense food โ gotta get more people eating healthy, am I right?
But at the same time, 40 new outlets in one year feels like a lot. Like, are we sure this isn't gonna put too much pressure on their staff and energy bills?
Those ยฃ51m store pre-opening costs don't exactly fill me with confidence either...
I'm also kinda intrigued by Tom Molnar's comments about balancing growth with careful consideration. It sounds like they're aware of the pitfalls of rapid expansion, like McDonald's
. But on the other hand, it's awesome to see them valuing their relationships with local communities and focusing on serving quality food... I'm definitely gonna have to check out these new branches when they open up!
