The story of J&J Snack Foods Corp.
Little did he know it at the time, but when Gerald B. Shreiber raised his hand and purchased the ailing J&J Pretzel Company at a court auction, he set in motion events that would yield a publicly traded snack food empire. Fast-forward almost 50 years, and what started with a humble facility and eight employees has grown into a family of 4,200 strong with locations across the country and products in every supermarket nationwide.
As a leader and innovator in the snack food industry, J&J Snack Foods provides nutritious and affordable branded-niche snack foods to foodservice and retail supermarket outlets across the U.S. Its products include such icons as SUPERPRETZEL and ICEE, fan favorites like LUIGI’S Real Italian Ice, The Funnel Cake Factory Funnel Cakes, and Hola Churros, as well as a host of other products spanning the baked goods, frozen beverage and frozen novelties categories.
