CINCINNATI — Here’s one way the cookie crumbles: United Dairy Farmers has decided to make its own doughnuts, sharply curtailing a 30-year business relationship with another famous Cincinnati brand.
”There’s no animosity here. It’s just the natural growth of their business,” Busken Bakery vice president Brian Busken said. His family-owned bakery has supplied roughly 130 UDF stores with fresh doughnuts daily for seven years and spent another seven test-driving the idea in a smaller number of stores, he added.
UDF is investing $11 million in a new Kemper Road “fresh Foods” facility that will create 30 new jobs and employ about 50 people, said Mark Wilson, corporate head of human resources for the convenience store chain. It’s part of an ongoing strategy to improve fresh food offerings in UDF stores.
