Breadsmith Store Cyberattack in Okemos Affects Bread Supply for Kroger Stores, Horrocks

OKEMOS — A cyberattack has affected a local Breadsmith bakery’s day-to-day operations and halted its sales to four Lansing-area Kroger grocery stores and Horrocks Farm Market, the bakery’s owner said Tuesday. 

The bakery at 4901 Okemos Road hasn’t been able to produce labels for its products sold at the Kroger stores and Horrocks since June 13. The computer that stores label and nutritional information remains infected with a malware virus. 

“When it affects you personally and you start realizing just how much we rely on technology in our society today, it’s not a stretch to imagine that the world, the entire world, could be just devastated,” Breadsmith owner Kent Seggebruch said.
