DAMASCUS BAKERIES is a 3rd Generation Bakery founded in 1930. We have three baking facilities: Brooklyn, New York, our history; Newark, NJ, our coprorate offices and primary bakery; Clifton, NJ, our newest and largest bakery, as well as our future R&D center.
We have a very strong- and even historic- presence in the Metro New York market as the premier baker of pitas, lavash, wraps and other flatbreads. Since 2000, we have expanded our capacity and distribution to the National Market, supplying and partnering with many of America#39;s top QSR#39;s, Casual Dining Restuarants, Food Service Establishments, Retail, Club and Natural Stores, Institutions, Distributors, and other Bakeries. For many of our customers, we have been the Flatbread Partner that has helped to create some of America#39;s most exciting, and delicious, sandwiches and pizzas.
In recent years we introduced Brooklyn Bred Since 1930, a retail brand for our retail products which include Pizza Crusts, Bistro Buns, Soft Bread Sticks, Focaccia and more. With the start up of our Clifton Bakery, we hope to expand our product line to include sweet and savory baked goods, snacks, culinary offerings.
We are an SQF and OSHA compliant company that currently employs over 400 people, some who have been with us for more than 40 years.
