About us
Let us introduce Bakels Sweden, a Bakels manufacturing Company based in Gothenburg, on the west coast of Sweden. This is pretty much where the Bakels journey started, with Bernard J Bakels establishing the then Nordbakels Company in 1943.
From this humble beginning, we have developed and launched a number of popular and innovative bakery products into the market, these being well known and used by bakers and confectioners worldwide.
Fast forwarding to 2021, Bakels Sweden produces upwards of 17,000 Tons per year, employing 105 people. Our main focus is on export markets, with over 75% of our sales being outside of Sweden. We sell to craft & large-scale industrial bakeries, distributors, wholesalers & sister companies in over 80 countries, across the entire world.
With vast international hands-on bakery experience, covering both industrial and artisan soft cakes and breads, our solutions come with the signature “Made in Sweden”. We have a natural mindset for quality, added functional value and production reliability.
