Ridgefield, NJ – New Jersey based Toufayan Bakeries – one of the largest family owned commercial bakeries in America – celebrated 50 years of business in the United States in October with a special event featuring Toufayan employees, Ridgefield Mayor Anthony Suarez, business partners and guests.
The event was a surprise for founder Harry Toufayan, who now runs the business with his three adult children. The Toufayans oversee the entire process from ingredient sourcing and production to distribution. Toufayan also marked this milestone anniversary with a $50,000 sponsorship of the Smithsonian Folklife Festival, a gesture in line with countless charitable contributions that have defined 5 decades in business.
Based in Ridgefield, Toufayan sells more than 100 varieties of breads and baked goods and is credited with kicking off the pita craze and helping introduce US consumers to ethnic breads and other baked bread innovations.
