Costeaux Family French Wholesale Bakery Prepares Transition

NORTH BAY – When Karl and Nancy Seppi met in Idaho at the Sun Valley Resort, the last thing they thought they would do was own a successful French-style bakery for 30 years.

Mr. Seppi was a golf pro and Ms. Seppi was a nurse on hiatus working as a waitress. They met, married and started a family. When they moved to Healdsburg 30 years ago, Ms. Seppi’s aunt suggested they buy Costeaux Bakery and for that to be the family business they wanted to start.

Now, after 30 years in the business, they are passing the torch.

In October of 2004, Will Seppi, the only son out of four children stepped in as the general manager.
