A third sister, Maria Flor, suggested that they name the enterprise “Goldilocks”, after the character in a fairy tale. The intention was to make it easier for children and their mothers to remember the bakeshop’s name, and also because it suggested luck and prosperity.
Little did the founders know that this “Once Upon a Time” would flourish into a real- life “Happily Ever After”: though hard work, dedication, and an uncompromising commitment to total customer satisfaction, Goldilocks is now the largest Filipino- owned bakeshop chain in the world.
