Herzensbäckerei: The Mobile Bakery with a Pro-Tent folding tent

Herzensbäckerei, based in Pegenau, has transformed an unused military vehicle into a fully functional mobile bakery. Combined with a red Pro-Tent 4000 folding tent, the result is a flexible outdoor solution for farm stands, markets, and festivals. This combination brings together traditional baking craftsmanship and Swiss premium quality in a striking presentation.

What engineering is to Pro-Tent, traditional baking is to Herzensbäckerei. In Pegenau, flour, water, and salt are lovingly transformed into handmade loaves and rolls.

To offer its baked goods fresh on the go in outdoor settings, the
bakery refurbished an unused Swiss Army bakery. Pro-Tent
was able to provide the perfect folding tent for this purpose—because Swiss premium quality
go hand in hand, after all!

The mobile baking station perfectly complemented by a folding pavilion

The Swiss Army’s historic bakery truck had stood unused for 25 years. Herz-Bäckerei has now painstakingly restored it and brought it back into top shape for flexible use on its own property, at farmers’ markets, and at festivals
.

Thanks to several ovens and built-in baking equipment, the mobile bakery delivers fresh baked goods right on the spot. The red Pro-Tent 4000 folding pavilion perfectly complements the overall outdoor setup and creates a harmonious setting for sales.

A versatile folding tent for flexible outdoor use

The red folding pavilion stands out in several ways:

  • Visual highlight: The design in the Swiss national colors immediately signals to customers the high quality standards and local origin.
  • Weather-protected sales area: As a robust outdoor solution, the tent provides shade for customers and protects them from wind and weather.
  • Flexible use: Whether as a direct sales counter or a small shelter for visitors—the folding pavilion offers a wide range of applications.

A Swiss bakery and a Swiss folding tent—this combination is simply a perfect match.

Here’s what Herzensbäckerei has to say about its market tent

“Of course, a Swiss bakery like ours needs a Swiss tent. The
quality of Pro-Tent’s folding tents impressed us right from the start. We’re all the happier
that this partnership has come about. With the new
folding tent, our mobile bakery is ready to go at any time.”
