Mara's Cafe and Bakery Revenue and Competitors

The concept behind Mara’s Café & Bakery got its start in 1984 as a simple “mom and pop” business began offering customers the highest quality, delectable desserts made fresh in our own bakery and served with freshly roasted coffee. It was with the encouragement of our family and friends that we began creating delicious desserts from traditional family recipes and Glenn, a coffee perfectionist, distinguished a unique line of roasted coffee products. It wasn’t long before we had customers coming in and out daily, requesting more of their favorite tasty treats and coffee beverages! The first Mara’s Café & Bakery was opened in Denville, NJ in 2004. With the addition of sandwiches, salads, wraps, gelato and more, this simple “mom and pop” concept quickly became a family-run business — and the dining destination of choice during all hours of the day. Customers from all over soon realized Mara’s was the best place to enjoy a delicious meal in a cozy atmosphere and began asking for more locations within their own communities. Thus, the idea to franchise our concept was conceived – after all, we couldn’t let our customers down! Now is the time for you to take advantage of this incredible opportunity and bring our amazing concept to your home town. With the help of our team of experts, our exclusive, award-winning recipes, and our time-tested business model, opening your own Mara’s Café & Bakery could be as easy as…pie!
