He later went on to create Dieters Delicacies, small bakery with everything produced through Browne’s bakery to his standard, although this was a part time job for dieter. In nineteen-ninety-nine, Dieter decided to start his own business calling it Dieters Delectables Ltd. Naming himself president and gm.

Dieter knows that there is tremendous wealth to be made by opening up his own plant. Gaining a potential 10.1% of the market by 2010, Dieter knows by building his own plant he can succeed.
