Annie's Bakery is committed to crafting the highest quality breads with wholesome, organic, and all natural ingredients. Made the old-world way with no preservatives or chemical additives , a longer fermentation process and lots of love! You could say that the idea for Annie's Breads began forming the Day that Joe and Annie met. Joe, like his mother, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather before him, worked in his family's Italian bakeries from an early age. His father moved to the United States in 1952 from Italy and met Joe's mother when he started working in her father's bakery. Together they opened 3 bakeries and then moved to Greenville, SC in the late 80's and formed Boiano Bakery, a large wholesale bakery. Joe met Annie when he started delivering bread to her natural food restaurant in Greenville. Annie's respect for slow food began as a child when she would watched the love that her mother put into cooking and serving wonderful meals for her family. When she opened her restaurant she knew that she wanted to show the same love to her customers by serving delicious and wholesome fare. With Joe's experience as a 4th generation baker of European style breads and Annie's commitment to using wholesome and all natural ingredients, Annie's Bakery was born.
