ASB 100 Year Anniversary logo

The American Society of Baking (ASB) is celebrating 100 years of serving the grain-based food industry. For a century, we’ve fostered a full range of opportunities in continuing education and professional development dedicated to individuals in grain-based foods. Our network of bakers, engineers, service providers, food technologists and equipment/ingredient suppliers has stood the test of time – proving to be an invaluable resource to baked goods manufacturers of all sizes and facilitating growth of our $87-billion-dollar industry.

Grain-based food production employs more than 330,000 hard-working Americans at more than 10,000 commercial baking facilities and high-volume retail bakeries. That’s why we make it our duty to advance baking knowledge and innovation to our members and the industry at large. With our members’ interest always at heart, ASB is proud to celebrate 100 years of service.
