The Story of Le Bread Xpress

The passion for baking runs in the family, as my grandfather was a baker in France.  Le Bread Xpress is my way of continuing what my grandfather started 80 years ago, but with a new, modern twist.  Bread is a staple of daily life, not only in France, but across the world.

After moving to the US, my daily quest became locating the best bread.  Most findings lacked freshness or quality.  Meanwhile, an innovative baguette machine in France provided the perfect inspiration, and I resolved to bring this technology and new concept of the micro-bakery to the US market.

The Micro-Bakery - Bake Xpress

New concept: from bread to baked goods

Evolving from our original vending machine concept Le Bread Xpress, we developed "Bakery in a box," a versatile micro-baking machine that can store and deliver a wide range of high-quality, delicious fresh products, 24/7 - anytime and on-demand.  Enter the new concept we call Bake Xpress.


Superior products from legendary La Boulangerie

To ensure customer satisfaction, we partnered with San Francisco's high-quality supplier La Boulangerie, known for its authenticity and unrivaled standards.  La Boulangerie is currently experiencing a remarkable expansion.   Read about it hereDelicious baked goods range from thin-crust pizzas to sweet or savory croissants.  


Modern technology

The machine is now available in and released to the US market. Its advanced technology answers the needs of millennials for fast, high-quality fare with:

  • 55" touch screen for easy menu selection
  • Ability to display ads on the screen
  • Cloud-based remote monitoring, alerts, and inventory management
  • Cashless payment functionality, including credit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay


    Standing out above the rest

    No other vending machine manufacturers offer our flexibility. Others are typically single product. We offer unlimited selection of food items and adjust the baking time accordingly.

    Our other key differentiator is our full solution, from providing the technology to the quality food items and all needed support.   

    We have multiple IP with the manufacturer as well as several breakthrough IPs currently in progress.
