Bab Inc 's Comment on Competition and Industry Peers
The company operates in the quick service restaurant industry, which is highly competitive in terms of product quality, concept, location, service, and price. It faces competition from national, regional, and local chains that operate both owned and franchised stores. The primary direct competitors for the company's bagel units include Panera Bread Company, Bruegger's Bagel Bakery, and Einstein Bros. Bagels. Additional competitors consist of several regional bagel chains with fewer than 65 stores, numerous small independently owned bagel bakeries, and national fast-food restaurants such as Dunkin’ and McDonald’s. In the muffin segment, there is no major national competitor, but regional and local operators are present. The company also competes with national, regional, and local coffee providers, supermarket bakery sections, and producers of prepackaged fresh and frozen bagels, muffins, and yogurt. Some competitors may have greater product and brand recognition as well as larger financial, marketing, and distribution resources. Startup costs for similar retail food establishments are comparable to those of the company, so these costs do not constitute a significant barrier to entry.
