About This Brand
Bimbo was founded in 1945 in Mexico City by Lorenzo and Roberto Servitje. From a single bakery producing sliced bread, Grupo Bimbo has grown into a multinational with revenues exceeding $20 billion, operating over 200 bakeries across 34 countries and employing more than 130,000 people. The Bimbo brand itself focuses on packaged bread, buns, and bakery staples β representing the core of the company's product portfolio alongside brands like Marinela (sweet snacks), Barcel (savory snacks), and Sara Lee (North America). Bimbo's competitive advantage lies in its direct-store-delivery (DSD) logistics network β one of the largest private distribution fleets in the world β which enables daily fresh delivery to retail locations. For B2B foodservice and institutional buyers, Bimbo offers custom bakery formulations, private-label programs, and institutional-size packaging. The company holds GFSI-benchmarked certifications across all facilities.
