About Us

A Legacy of Family, Flavour, and Freshness Since 1984
Always Fresh, Always Delicious — a Leone Family Tradition

Glen Abbey Italian Bakery began with a simple dream and a deep love for baking. In the 1970s, our founder, Francesco Leone Sr., immigrated to Canada with the vision of one day opening his own bakery in the heart of Ontario. He spent years working in local bakeries, learning the craft, understanding the food industry, and perfecting the flavourful recipes that would become the cornerstone of our family business.

That dream became a reality in 1984, when Glen Abbey Italian Bakery first opened its doors. Today—over four decades later—Francesco’s passion lives on through the hands and hearts of the Leone family. We continue to bake fresh, delicious bread with the same care, tradition, and patience that started it all.

We proudly use only the highest quality ingredients, free from artificial preservatives or fillers, and stay true to the artisanal methods passed down through generations. Every loaf, bun, and dough we make reflects our unwavering commitment to authenticity, freshness, and family values.

From our CFIA-licensed and HACCP-certified facility in Mississauga, Ontario, we deliver freshly baked and frozen goods to major grocery chains, independent retailers, and food distributors across the Greater Toronto Area—and frozen deliveries throughout the province.

At Glen Abbey, consistency, care, and on-time delivery are at the heart of what we do. Because for us, it’s not just about bread—it’s about sharing the warmth of tradition, one bite at a time.
