Who are we?

We are a small, young, positive, and relaxed team. Every year we grow as a company, an online store, a team, and a family. We believe that working with chocolate is the sweetest job one could wish for.

We aim to provide home bakers with carefully selected, first-class baking products.We believe that our BAM products have a place in every home baker’s kitchen.

Our values

Customers First

Our company exists to help home bakers bake top-quality desserts. Every decision we make and every result we measure against how well it serves our customers.

Start Now

It doesn't make sense to wait until we have all the answers. The right moment for a fresh start is always here and now.

A Long-Term Vision

The success of BAM is everyone's responsibility. Every team member is responsible for making decisions, solving problems, and taking actions contributing to long-term impact and financial success.

A Curious Mind

We have learned that we cultivate curiosity and empathy when we listen to others. We approach every challenge with an open mind and a curious mind, which enables us to innovate and move forward.

Andraž G.

CEO

Optimizing processes, testing new BAM products, and planning the best team building are not exactly in the same business, but they go together. His motto: Let's investigate the problem, then find the solution.

How do you take care of your employees? My modus operandi is based primarily on trust, respect, and motivation of the individual. And to name a few "goodies": quarterly surprises (last one: a box of fruit & vegetables), competitive salaries with maximum recourse, "open office" (most of the team works "remote first" - with the possibility to work in the office) without "stamping," winter and summer team building, autumn and spring sports days, and annual lunches with every employee (I tend to make time for everyone).
What are you most afraid of? At the moment, mainly how the situation in the world will affect us and our environment. But we have a fantastic team now, which will be able to overcome all the obstacles and hurdles. :)
Where can we find you when you're not at work? You can find me in the kitchen or out on a walk. On weekends I spend much time in the air (I'm a keen paraglider) or on a hill somewhere.

Nika Š.

Head of Marketing

Nika is the one who brings the BAM Marketing team together. She makes sure that processes run smoothly and that you hear on time about all the latest developments in the BAM world.

What are you most afraid of? Being stuck in the same place.
Where would you like to travel to? Somewhere warm, sunny and by the sea! :P Mexico, Seychelles, Zanzibar, Thailand, Dubai,... The wish list never ends.
What would you do if you had so much money that you didn't have to work? I would travel the world with my family! I would discover new cultures, enjoy the food, the drinks and all the possible given moments. I would take care of all my family and close friends. At the same time, I would help companies that have a really good idea (product/service) to improve their business by advising and cooperating, even investing.

Ana B.

Head of Purchase

You want a new BAM product, Ana makes it happen. She keeps BAM baking products in stock and makes sure we add new products to our online shelves.

The biggest challenge you've encountered? Uh, that's quite a difficult question. I often face challenges, but the hardest ones to overcome are those related to factors beyond my control. I worry most about price rises, which result in poorer negotiations.
Where can we find you when you are not working? This one is easy. In the gym.
Best moment of your working day? When BAM team wants new flavours, I make sure we get them.

Metka J.

Warehouse Manager

Metka makes sure that your BAM products are carefully protected and delivered to your address just when you are "pulling the mixer out of the cupboard".

Where can we find you after work? After work, you can find me in the garden, behind the stove (I love to cook) or having a coffee with some good company. But the first two dominate.
Best feeling at work? Best feeling? The fair and honest relationship between the team and the openness of Andraž to solve problems immediately.
What is the most beautiful part of Slovenia? My favourite place... definitely the Slovenian Coast. I have always found my zen in the sea, the crashing waves and good Istrian food from local vendors. Goriška Brda also hide a lot of treasures.

Barbara K.

Website editor

She's like an ambulance, except she roams the web and a bit among the team members. She uses her knowledge and experience of more than 10 years, to make sure the website works properly, to create the best user experience and to optimise processes.

Which is your favourite dessert? Actually, I rarely make the same desserts because I like to experiment with new recipes. But the most common desserts in my kitchen are cream and mousse desserts :)
What would you do if you weren't part of the BAM team? Good question :) Because after so many years of being surrounded by chocolate (10 and still counting), I can't imagine anything else he he he. Joking aside - I think I would still go into a similar digital project, as this kind of work is right up my alley.
Working from home or working in an office? I definitely choose working from home because I can use my time more productively in my home office. But when I "miss" the rest of the team, they are just a click or a call away :)

Saša N.

Head of performance marketing

Tech master of Facebook, Instagram, Google, TikTok and other advertising platforms. A designer at heart, responsible for the graphics that stand alongside BAM products.

What would you do if you had so much money that you didn't have to go to work? I would travel, learn about different cultures around the world, invest and work for a charity that works on sustainability, coral reefs, saving marine life. And I'd also do some content creation or design packaging for one of those sustainable companies - for the soul. But I would definitely always do something related to design and sustainability if I didn't need the money. And I would certainly give money to those who would need it (family, friends).
Where would you like to travel to? Peru, Indonesia.
What are you most afraid of? Not being able to see anymore or being stuck in my life.

Boštjan P.

FB Ads Specialist

Technical expert on Facebook, Instagram, Google, TikTok and other advertising platforms. Boštjan is Saša's right-hand man, and together they help you find the right BAM product for you through ads.

Where would you like to travel to? Somewhere where there is a lot going on and you can experience a lot of different things. Maybe Thailand or Dubai.
What annoys you the most? When unexpected and completely pointless mistakes are made in the programs.
Best moment of the work day? When I add music to the video ad and the sound fits perfectly to the picture.

Patricija Ž.

Key account manager

You know that feeling when you decide to make a dessert on the spur of the moment, but it's too late to buy it online? Patricija is your solution. She makes sure that you can find our BAM baking products on the shelves of retail stores. :)

Fun fact about you. I'm sharing more of them. :) I can't brush my teeth with warm water. I can't stand the sight of chewed gum. I don't like to cook. I love cats. If I'm hungry I'm hangry.
Where can we find you when you're not at work? On the move, in the mountains, enjoying the fresh air while listening to podcasts. At home surrounded by my family and 2 cats. With a book in my hand or on the sofa with a good crime series.
How would you explain to your family what you do at work? I make sure BAM products are available on the shelves of every shop.

Gašper R.

Developer

Mastermind behind our online shop and developer of all technical innovations. Gašper makes sure your online shopping experience runs smoothly and comes to the rescue if you have any problems with the BAM website.

Where would you like to travel to? Road trip across America, otherwise Bali, Hawaii.
Best moment of your work day? When things go well and without complications.
What would you do if you had so much money that you didn't have to work? I would slow down my pace, travel the world, take care of my loved ones, build a little cottage by the sea and get acquainted with one random hobby :)

Teja K.

Content Marketing Specialist

Teja is responsible for producing fresh news, recipes, and other textual-visual content. Interweaving interesting texts with SEO optimization is her domain.

Where would you like to go? Everywhere I've never been before! I'm most drawn to Africa.
Where can we find you when you're not working? In the kitchen, in good company, playing piano, or reading a good book with a cup of coffee in my hand.
What is the best moment of your working day? When I get so caught up in writing an article or a mailing, I need to remember what's happening around me.

Nastja G.

Customer support

When you get stuck, Nastja is here to help. She makes sure your orders arrive on time and helps you if you get stuck at any step. Every now and then, she'll send you a trick, a tip or a recipe on how to create with BAM products.

Biggest challenge you've encountered? Overall, I would have to say 'moving 250km away from my family'. But at work I face challenges every day if I have to turn down a discount or a favour. It's quite difficult :)
Where do you like to travel? I'm probably one of the few people who prefers trips rather than travelling. Definitely one of my favourite destinations is Italy. I love their art and their cuisine and I always love to go back. In the future I would like to visit the Nordic countries.
What is something you would never try? Any extreme specialities like grasshoppers, etc. Seafood is already too much for me ...

Tajda F.

Warehouse assistant

Tajda is Metka's right-hand person and together they make sure that your BAM products are carefully protected and delivered to your address just when you are "pulling the mixer out of the cupboard".

The biggest challenge you've encountered? My biggest challenge in life was to find a new job practically overnight. But I did it! :)
Where do you like to travel? I like to travel or go wherever there is water. I really enjoy and relax by the sea, lakes or waterfalls.
What is something you would never try? I am very adventurous and adrenaline-loving, so I love to take on new challenges, and I like to experience them with my friends.

Blaž B.

Video and photo content creator

Because we know how important it is to prepare the dish correctly, Blaž takes photos of the recipe and also provides a video demonstration to show you each step.

What's something you'd never try? I would never try a roller coaster like the Blue Tornado and other extreme adrenaline stuff.
What would you do if you had so much money that you didn't have to work? If I had so much money that I didn't have to go to work, I would travel all over the world and vlog for my YouTube channel.
Where can we find you when you're not working? When I'm not working, you can usually find me in the company of my friends with good food and drinks. But I definitely take an evening or a morning in between to spend some time with myself.
