A company with trustworthy, leading brands for our consumers.

Our History

doughIn the past century, bakeries were established and run by families who got their start by supplying baked goods to their neighborhoods. Over the past decades, Grupo Bimbo has acquired some of these bakeries and brought them together to form Bimbo Bakeries USA, which today is a leading baker in the continental US.

Our rich heritage and passion for our products, brands and consumers are driven by a history of growth that began in 1984, although some of our leading brands date back to the early 1900s.

This history began in 1984 when Grupo Bimbo started exporting and distributing its leading Mexican products into California and Texas. Since then, a diverse number of bread and tortilla bakeries have been acquired. Today, this entire legacy is what is Bimbo Bakeries USA.

Among the most important acquisitions that have positioned Bimbo Bakeries USA as a premier baker in the U.S. is the purchase of Mrs Baird’s Bakeries, the leading independent baker in Texas, and the purchase of the Western Division of George Weston Bakeries, which brought with it the Oroweat brand and others.
