- Purebread Brands Inc. operates as a Canadian artisan bakery and café company, developing, operating and franchising premium bakery-and-café concepts under the Purebread brand. The Company produces and sells artisan breads; pastries; cakes; cookies; desserts; savoury baked goods; prepared food items; specialty coffee and café beverages through company-operated bakery cafés, and is building a franchise platform intended to expand the Purebread concept across Canada. Its retail offering targets consumers seeking premium, handcrafted baked goods and café experiences, while its historical operations also include the Coho brand’s commercial-kitchen rental and related business-support services for food entrepreneurs and food-service companies. The Company operates principally in British Columbia, where it has seven bakery-and-café locations, and is pursuing broader Canadian expansion. Purebread Brands Inc. was incorporated in 2019, is headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, and was formerly known as Coho Collective Kitchens Inc. before adopting its current name in May 2024. Recent developments include the launch of a Purebread franchise-partner program in August 2026, initially offering franchise opportunities in British Columbia; a continuing strategic focus on scaling its premium artisan bakery platform while closing underperforming Coho Commissary Kitchen locations; and the completion of several debt-settlement transactions. In September 2026, the Company completed a settlement of C$3.0 million of indebtedness through the issuance of 20.0 million units and separately settled C$400,000 of outstanding debt through the issuance of 320,000 common shares, following broader balance-sheet restructuring initiatives.
