Meet the team behind Freshly Baked US in the Bronx and Midtown.
Freshly Baked US
Co-founder David Nicponski is a software engineer with a longtime interest in startup companies that reshape established industries. When New York opened a new retail licensing framework, he saw the chance to build another company from the ground up and help the community grow economically.
Pamela Nicponski, co-founder, comes from a CPA background. When New York introduced its 2021 licensing framework, she dug into the regulatory process, gaining insight into the work required to launch and run a licensed retail business. She looks forward to applying that accounting background to strengthen profitability and day-to-day efficiency.
Co-founder John Nicponski has a mathematics and computer science background. He joined Freshly Baked NYC in April 2023. Since then, he has supported planning and analysis while helping the company adapt its systems and workflows to the needs of a tightly regulated retail environment.
Starting our business was a complex journey. We initially educated ourselves with online research as New York's licensing framework unfolded, and after receiving approval, we expanded our knowledge and network through conferences and seminars.
