MORENO BAKERY, INC.
BRANDON, FLORIDA

Moreno Bakery, Inc., based in Brandon, Florida, is a family-run gem founded by Cuban-born Jose and Susan Moreno. Situated on Robertson Street, this bakery stands out for its dedication to the age-old craft of baking authentic Cuban bread, an art passed down through generations from Jose's grandfather who ran the Golden Eagle Bakery. With hands-on expertise, Jose masterfully executes the traditional five-hour process that involves multiple stages of resting and rising, topped with hand-picked palmetto leaves as a signature touch. Since its humble inception in 2008 serving just twelve customers daily, Moreno Bakery has blossomed into a flourishing community favorite, now welcoming over 300 guests every day and even more during peak times like Christmas Eve. To keep pace with demand, the bakery recently expanded its operations by adding two entrances, increasing display cases from four to seven, and upgrading from one cash register to three, all while planning space for up to 50 dine-in guests. At the heart of Moreno Bakery's success is a deep-seated connection with loyal customers like Teresa Boully, who makes a point to stop by on her commute, and Ziad Kazbour, owner of nearby restaurants who frequently places big celebratory orders with them. Balancing tradition with expansion, the bakery maintains its focus on customer-focused service through both dine-in experiences and an enriched repertoire in catering and wholesale services. Despite competition from bigger bakeries that rely on extensive distribution networks to reach a nationwide audience, Moreno Bakery remains true to its roots by concentrating on exceptional quality and local community engagement. Under Susan's leadership in their new corner office space and with strategic corporate decisions, the bakery is setting the stage for long-term growth while preserving its hallmark charm. Headquartered at 906 W Robertson St, Florida, and incorporated under state law since November 16, 2006 (File Number: P06000144682), Moreno Bakery continues to thrive as a testament to both tradition and innovation. Under directors Dorothy S Gordon and Jose A Moreno, it invites everyone to experience their flavorful offerings by phone at (813) 689-0320 or online at morenobakery.com.
