🙌 We are rallying for a little support for our little business as we reopen our front door to the public for the first time in a week, what has been the worst week in business to date 🫣
❌ Long post alert ‼️
I’m not usually one to share on social media too much about bakery life but what happened us last week we wouldn’t want any other small business to face so please share to spread the word….
A local man who had been wheeling and dealing this last forty or more years had been into the bakery a few times since we opened showing us catering equipment on the laptop and pricing different pieces for us… last week he rang with an almost new fridge for sale only took out of a place as it was ordered too big.
I paid over €4000 for it as a new one costs the same but he agreed to remove the huge old fridge for me. I paid him foolishly and off he went for the fridge to the main warehouse as he said…
He appeared back with a fridge that although works is not a young fridge nor worth the half of the money paid, he didn’t have all the parts to put the fridge together nor had he any idea how to put it together he was watching a video on how to do so…. As you can imagine I was very upset and just wanted my money back and for him to take it away. Of course he didn’t and he didn’t put it together. We had to close for business to the public for 6 days, we had to work around glass panels sitting on benches. We had to source the missing parts ourselves and put it together ourselves…so if you are a small business and someone has approached you to buy equipment please feel free to message me to check it’s not the same person!!
Huge thank you to Letterkenny Glass for helping us out with the parts we needed 🙌
And now we are asking for a little support to try and gather some of our loss of income, we know things are tight but if you can afford one wee treat we’d really appreciate it ❤️
Opening tomorrow at 8am to 4pm and also at rossnowlagh_farmers_market tomorrow 10am-1pm
Big thank you to everyone who texted and called and tried to help it didn’t go unnoticed ❤️
