Family-Owned Sugar Bowl Bakery to Open Facility in DeKalb County, Create 400 Jobs
Atlanta, GA Governor Brian P. Kemp today announced that Sugar Bowl Bakery, one of the leading minority-owned bakeries in America, will locate its first East Coast location in DeKalb County. The company will deliver approximately 400 new jobs and invest $37 million over the next five years in its new Tucker facility.
"Sugar Bowl Bakery is one of the great American success stories, and we're excited to welcome this internationally known, family-owned bakery to Georgia," said Governor Kemp. "Through our outstanding workforce and logistics network, Sugar Bowl Bakery will be able to better serve their growing customer base, and I'm glad that the hardworking Georgians in Tucker will benefit from this fine addition to their community."
Sugar Bowl Bakery has been in operation since its founding by the Ly family as a neighborhood coffee shop in 1984. Today, the company is a national, minority-certified bakery whose products include palmiers, madeleines, brownie bites, fritters, and more.
Headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area, Sugar Bowl Bakery's premium baked goods are sold in the grocery and club channels at many major retailers domestically and internationally. This expansion will enable the company's continued growth with regional distribution partners.
"Sugar Bowl Bakery is excited to be expanding to Georgia in order to better serve our customers and to bring jobs to the City of Tucker and DeKalb County," said Andrew Ly, co-founder and CEO of Sugar Bowl Bakery. "Sugar Bowl Bakery has had much growth and transformation since my brothers and I decided to pursue our American Dream in San Francisco 36 years ago. This is another major milestone in allowing Sugar Bowl Bakery to fulfill its mission of bringing people joy through our delicious foods. We thank Governor Kemp and many other state, county, and city officials for helping make our decision to move to Georgia quite simple!"
