The Aunt Millie’s story is all about family, devotion, and loyalty. Founded by John Franke in 1901 in Fort Wayne, Indiana, our company was originally known as Wayne Biscuit Company. We later became Perfection Bakery, and ultimately, Aunt Millie’s. Through world wars, the Great Depression, and now, two global pandemics, we’ve focused on producing and delivering the freshest, highest-quality bread.

Today, we are proud to remain a family-owned business, founded on strong Midwestern values defined by hard work, humility and a tireless dedication to quality.

From our five bakeries, we produce half a million pounds of bread daily. With a fleet of 600 trucks, we serve hundreds of stores and millions of consumers every day. With a wide variety of delicious products, we make sure there is always an Aunt Millie’s product for every taste.
