Piantedosi Baking Company, Inc. is a fourth-generation, family-owned bakery built on a commitment to quality and service. Since 1916, the Piantedosi Family has worked passionately to ensure satisfaction at every level. A history of quality dating back to 1916 continues today at Piantedosi.
Based in Malden, Mass., the bakery’s products include hearth-baked subs and french bread, baguettes, loaf breads, rolls and specialty products. Adam Piantedosi, operations and compliance analyst, explains that his great-grandfather, Salvatore Piantedosi, started the company in 1916.
He began by delivering bread and pasta to customers with a horse and wagon. This earned him the nickname of the “Midnight Baker,” since he delivered anytime day or night. Together with his wife, Mary, Piantedosi worked to build a business that would endure.
Over time, Adam Piantedosi says, the company grew beyond bread and into pastries, which proved to be a successful venture for years. “Eventually we were having a hard time getting good pastry bakers,” he says. “The demand for bread was increasing.”
But the company also thrived as it began introducing new sandwich rolls and breads. “We like to think as ourselves as the first to make sub rolls and grinders,” he says. Piantedosi Baking ultimately shut down its pastry shop but purchased a new facility in Malden.
Today, Piantedosi Baking’s customer base ranges from pizza shops to national restaurant chains to five-star eateries. The company’s level of quality also has grown. “What we’re really focusing on is using high-quality ingredients,” he says, noting that Piantedosi Baking uses the best-quality, chemical-free ingredients.
