GRAND CENTRAL BAKERY EQUITY STANCE
Our values of delicious products, teamwork, outstanding customer service, sustainable food production, fair compensation, and excellence guide every decision we make. As an artisan bakery established with white ownership and leadership, we acknowledge that systemic and historic inequities founded on racial injustice and white privilege serve as a barrier to fully realizing our values.
