MichiganBread.com is a local bakery and bread distributor serving the Food Service industry. We have recently merged with The Good Bread Company in Minneapolis, MN! This page will eventually turn into The Good Bread Company page. Our company was founded in 1973 by George Assimacopoulos delivering from the trunk of his 71′ Plymouth Duster! George soon developed a strong clientele in the Downtown Detroit area serving customers with products from a handful of local bakeries. In the mid 90’s, sons Andy and Spiro joined George to form Assimacopoulos Bakery Distributors Inc. The business steadily grew, servicing accounts throughout suburban Detroit and continuing to expand it’s network of supplier bakeries. By 2003 we established our own warehousing facility and began representing regional baking companies in the Detroit market.In 2006, Assimacopoulos Bakery Distributors Inc. merged operations with Mike Sanfilippo of Supreme Sales & Service to form Assimacopoulos Supreme Baking Co. (ASB). Mike operated his company since the early 80’s and had a strong hold on the hotel and country club segments of the market. Merging the two companies further diversified our customer base, strengthened our delivery capabilities and increased our product offerings. Early in 2010 we established Michigan Bread to further increase our ability to service our customers. The Michigan Bread product line is artisan in nature, but performs exceedingly well in commercial food service applications. Michigan Bread is proud to offer the widest variety of fresh, high quality, delivered baked goods available. We are a family owned company that takes pride in what we do. It is our mission to provide the highest quality products and service available and become a true asset to your business or institution.
