The Story of Istana Roti Bakery, one of SMEs Fostered by Bukit Asam (PTBA)
July 06, 2023
"Previously, we only had a machine for making white bread. Istana Roti Bakery began to experience an increase in production only after receiving additional capital from Bukit Asam," stated Diana Wati, the owner of Istana Roti Bakery.
Diana currently employs four people and has more than 20 regular customers.. The factory consumes 75-100 kg of flour and produces around 8 different types of bread every day. The demand for bread is increasing with time.
According to Diana, PTBA not only provides finance support and production equipment, but also counseling to help solve business challenges by conducting routine training and instruction every month through Rumah BUMN Bukit Asam.
"The collaboration with Bukit Asam is very professional. If there are any issues, we always communicate them to Bukit Asam through the Rumah BUMN Bukit Asam. I am very grateful to Bukit Asam for the business financing assistance and cake mixer machine tools, which have allowed us to increase our production capacity. We hope that the coaching and training will continue so that we can continue to learn and grow our business," she said.
