USA: C.H. Guenther & Son to acquire Baldinger and Sons bakeries

Branded and private label food multinational C.H. Guenther has announced the acquisition of Baldinger-Sons bakeries for an undisclosed sum.

The acquisition of Minnesota-based Baldinger bakery and Canada-based Sons bakery will help C.H. Guenther & Son to expand its bakery manufacturing capacity and strengthen relationships with quick-service restaurant customers.

Founded in 1888, Baldinger bakes hamburger buns, rolls, bagels, and other bakery items for multinational quick-service (QSR) restaurant brands with operations in the United States, Canada, and Europe.

“I am very pleased to welcome the Baldinger and Sons bakeries to the CHG family,” said John Buckles, president, and CEO of C.H. Guenther & Son. “The company’s highly sophisticated manufacturing facilities and longstanding partnerships with blue-chip QSR customers are a great fit as we grow our combined company. I am confident the addition of Baldinger-Sons’ talented team will strengthen CHG’s leadership position in our markets and enhance our product offering for our customers.”
