— What we stand for —
Flour, water, salt, yeast, time. No artificial preservatives, no compromises — the way proper bread has been made for generations.
We bake while Ireland sleeps. Fresh bread shouldn't be rushed in the morning — it should rise slowly through the night so your breakfast is already waiting.
Polish, Lithuanian, Ukrainian, Romanian and Moldovan traditions, one family of bakers. We honour each heritage without blurring it.
Our 310+ retail partners are why we exist. VMI logistics, daily delivery, marketing support — we measure ourselves by your sell-through.
— Our Success Story —
Thirteen years of milestones — 2013 to 2026 — told in the words of the bakery itself.
“The only impossible journey is the one you never begin.”
It all started in August 2013, when the ideas and aromas of freshly baked bread were floating in the air. We got inspired, dwelt on them and started our own research on market requirements and customer needs.
With a very little offer of these specific types of bread, we saw the value of introducing a new product to the market that would satisfy customer needs. So we decided to start our new exciting journey.
“Success is a journey, not a destination.”
Many events have happened and many changes were implemented throughout the years, but our identity and mission have always remained the same. We are here to satisfy our clientele, to meet their needs and desires. This defines our place in the baking landscape. We keep discovering the multicultural side of the population of Ireland. The result you can see in our catalogue of breads: Polish, Lithuanian, Bulgarian, Romanian... Old tastes, traditional, and with a tweak – everyone can find something he seeks for. And varieties are constantly growing.
We scaled our success and expanded our product delivery to every corner of the island of Ireland, including more and more families into the one big community of The Happy Family Bakery’s bread lovers, who share happiness and satisfaction with the products we made for them, value the deep roots and traditions, advocate bread eating and appreciate good quality bread. Because we also do!
