They strive to provide the highest quality professional service to exceed their customers’ expectations.
Their goal is to provide the very best bakery products with a forward-thinking passion for growth and innovation for their company and their products. The core goal for Lewis Bake Shop has always been the same: to offer great-tasting bakery products that complement a healthy lifestyle.
In 1925, three brothers took out a $300 mortgage on their mother’s house to open a bakery inside a Southern Illinois cabin. The breads of Amos, Armold and Jack Lewis were delivered daily by Ford Model T trucks to nearby homes.
By the 1950s, the family operation had grown into a major regional bakery, thanks in part to the creation of a brand now synonymous with freshly baked bread in Midwestern households, Bunny Bread. Well-known brands, such as Lewis Bake Shop and Healthy Life, are also baked and distributed by Lewis Brothers Bakeries. Lewis Bake Shop strives to produce the best bakery products and respond to our consumers’ needs. These goals have led to many milestone achievements, including the introduction of Healthy Life Bread in 1991, the first fat-free reduced-calorie bread on the market. In its initial debut, Healthy Life Bread and Buns quickly won over customers searching for a bread that was not only diet-friendly, but also tasted great.
Their culture is built around a proud company history and family legacy of quality baking. They will always remember, “Grow or Go!”
