Our ground-breaking year of growth just got a whole lot sweeter with industry rankings and the first anniversary of Edible Bakeshop^™.

We kicked off Q4 on an exciting note with a top 30 percent ranking on the Franchise Times’ Top 400 list. Our esteemed placement is supported by a 32.7% growth in sales last year. With a dedication to strategic growth and innovation, our ranking serves as a testament to our brands, ever-evolving product offerings and seamless approach to operations.

The 54 spots jump up from last year serves as a testament to our franchisee’s dedication and hard work, and the brands’ ever-evolving product offerings and seamless approach to operations. Our dedication to strategic growth and innovation fuels our reputation as the world’s leader in the gifts and treats category.

In tandem with the news, we’re celebrating the first anniversary of Edible Bakeshop^™, which added cookies, cheesecakes, cupcakes and brownies to our extensive product line. The consumer response to this category exceeded brand expectations, becoming one of the leading drivers in sales for our stores.

The Edible Bakeshop^™ continued to build momentum this summer with the launch of strawberry cupcakes and cheesecakes, which were available for a limited time, and sales goals were exceeded in just three weeks. Our franchise owners are thrilled with the increased foot traffic and demand that the seasonal products bring. Adding to the category’s diverse roster of offerings will be fall-themed pumpkin cheesecake and red velvet cupcakes. Both will be available to customers for a limited time.

“Edible’s^® momentum has not wavered in 2021. Being among the top 130 brands within Franchise Times top 400 list is no doubt an indication of our brand’s strength,” said Patricia Perry, vice president of franchise development at Edible^®. “Hearing the announcement of this award on the heel of Edible Bakeshop’s^™ one-year anniversary definitely made for a sweet start to Q4. This year has been an exciting one for Edible^® and it’s been great to celebrate the overall success of our brand and the success of our franchisees. There is much more in the pipeline for Edible^® before the end of the year and we’re eager to expand our brand even further in 2022.”
