Bake'n Joy Food, Dacon create new production facility
New North Andover, MA facility expanded from existing 1970's industrial facility.
Dacon has completed the design and construction of a 47,000 square foot facility for Bake’n Joy Food in North Andover, MA. This project entailed the renovation and expansion of an existing 1970’s industrial facility. Operational efficiency, high performance processes, product innovation and safety fueled the design mindset while customizing an environment to accommodate offices, employee support areas, shipping/receiving docks, a cooler corridor, manufacturing, baking, engineering, and conference rooms.
Abraham Ogan, the founder of Bake’n Joy, began the firm amidst war-time practicalities of WWII when corner bakeries were a newcomer to America’s convenience landscape. Operating as the A.E. Ogan Baking Company, he began by selling bread and donut mixes using one blender. An attuned strategist sensitive towards consumer needs, he expanded product lines into mixes/bases for muffins and Danishes while increasing distribution through supermarket and foodservice channels.
