Carolina Foods, a bakery renowned for its iconic Duchess Honey Buns, donuts, pastries and pies, is celebrating its 90th anniversary with the opening of a new state-of-the-art facility. The new headquarters, in the Charlotte suburb of Pineville, is part of a strategic growth plan.
Dan Myers, CEO of Carolina Foods, says the pivotal milestone symbolizes a new era and the culmination of decades of dedication, and commitment to the customers. “The delicious smell of our honey buns now fills the air in Pineville, a testament to the innovation and quality that has kept us thriving for 90 years,” he said. “We are grateful to celebrate this new chapter surrounded by our esteemed employees, community members, and partners.”
The new facility is under work with the installation and commission of additional production lines yet to be done. Once completed, it will allow Carolina Foods to double its capacity vs. the South End location. The bakery said more production will move to the Pineville location. Original operation is expected to phase out by the end of 2025.
