Hall Baking Company was a Buffalo, NY, bakery that operated from 1915 until it was sold in 1967.
A well-known Buffalo institution for over 50 years, and generations of residents have nostalgic memories of its products and delivery service.
The company was founded by Frank L. Hall, who was born in Buffalo in 1863. He died in 1927, but the business continued for decades.
Home delivery: In its early days, the bakery used horse-drawn wagons for home deliveries before switching to motor trucks before World War II. To receive a delivery, customers would place a large \"H\" sign in their window.
Acquisition: In 1967, Hall Baking Company was sold to Kaufman\'s Bakery, another historic Buffalo institution. Kaufman\'s relocated to Hall\'s former Fillmore Avenue location in 1968.
