High
quality donuts with the emphasis on guaranteed freshness was and is the
philosophy Charles F. Burnside has used ever since he purchased donuts
from his father for $.20/bag and sold them from his bicycle basket for
$.30/bag. In 1946, Maple
Donuts started on Maple Street in York, Pennsylvania.
The name Maple Donuts evolved over the years as Charlie opened
additional stores throughout the city limits.
What started as Charlie making the donuts and his wife, Sue,
selling them at the store, expanded to sales outside of York City as
Charlie realized what a superior product he had developed.
The next step was wrapping the donuts and selling them through
vending companies. On January 1, 1969, Charlie purchased Maple Donuts from his father and became incorporated. Strong sales growth and expansion into new products as well as new markets has been the trend ever since. Sales through different distribution channels takes Maple Donuts Inc. beyond the Mid-Atlantic states, making the company one of the largest independent producers of donuts on the East Coast. Our varied customer base includes: grocery chains, in-store bakeries, vending companies, caterers, schools, dairies, and several types of institutions, with private label as our specialty. In
September 2002, Maple Donuts Inc. acquired the assets of a competitor in
Lake City, Pennsylvania. This
acquisition more than doubled the capacity of the company as well as added
the immediate potential to sell new products: frozen pie shells. Our Lake City facility, Maple Donuts Erie, LLC, complements
and supports the company objective of realizing incremental sales of
frozen items, which the new facility is designed to produce. The growth of Maple Donuts, Inc. can be attributed to the emphasis placed on maintaining high standards of product quality, of excellent customer relationships, of superior job performance and the unwillingness to compromise these standards. |
