About Ellison Bakery
In 1945, Ellison Bakery started as a one-man operation in the family garage in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Donald Ellis produced, sold, and delivered high-quality baked goods to restaurants and groceries throughout the area. As Ellison Bakery’s reputation for excellent products spread, the business outgrew the small garage. In 1948, with the rapid growth, Ellison Bakery moved to the Ellisville truck stop on US 24 in Fort Wayne. With the new facility, the founders were able to increase output and began producing Swanson Homemade Cookies, which are now known as Archway cookies. Donald Ellis became one of the earliest pioneers of Archway, producing a high-quality product made from only the finest ingredients. This partnership with Archway allowed Ellison to be the exclusive producer of Archway cookies for Indiana, Kentucky, and Wisconsin. This license was held until 1997, at which time Ellison Bakery became a supplier to Archway Cookies with products sold throughout the United States.
