Angel Bakeries (Hebrew: מאפיות אנג'ל Ma'afiyot Anjel), also known as Angel's Bakery, is the largest commercial bakery in Israel, producing 275,000 loaves of bread and 275,000 rolls daily[1] and controlling 30 percent of the country's bread market.[2] With a product line of 100 different types of bread products and 250 different types of cakes and cookies,[3] Angel sells its goods in 32 company-owned outlets nationwide[4] and distributes to 6,000 stores and hundreds of hotels and army bases.[3] It also exports to the United States, United Kingdom, France, Belgium and Denmark.[5]

Founded in 1927 in Jerusalem, Mandatory Palestine by Salomon Angel, Angel Bakeries introduced to the Israeli market the first sliced bread, plant-based emulsifiers, and new baking technologies. It has always been family-run, at first by Salomon with his brothers and sons,[6] then by Salomon's grandsons, and today by Salomon's great-grandsons.[2] The company, Salomon A. Angel Ltd., is publicly traded on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, with a turnover of $180 million in 2008.[7]
