Hostess Brands, Inc. Company Profile
It's no Wonder that a Hostess would show her Home Pride by serving breads and sweet treats made by Hostess Brands (formerly Interstate Bakeries Corporation). As one of the nation's largest wholesale bakers, it operates 39 bakeries and some 700 bakery outlet stores, delivering baked goods to US supermarkets, mass marketers, and convenience stores. The company's national and regional bread brands include Wonder, Home Pride, and Beefsteak. It sells snack cakes, donuts, and sweet baked goods brands such as Hostess Fruit Pies, Ho-Hos, and Twinkies, and also produces croutons and stuffing under the Mrs. Cubbison's and Marie Callender's brands. The company filed for bankruptcy protection in 2004 and emerged in 2009.
