HILCO'S AWREY BAKERIES CELEBRATES 100TH ANNIVERSARY
|
| |
When Canadian farming foundered in the early 1900s, Fletcher Awrey immigrated to Michigan with hopes of finding work in the auto industry. Times here were also tough. To help the family get by, his wife, Elizabeth, began baking breads and pies to sell.
They were good, really good, and word spread. The family eventually opened a little store on Tireman near West Grand Boulevard. The rest is history -- 100 years to be specific as Awrey Bakeries slows down long enough Tuesday for a centennial celebration honoring the company and family members.
