Cooper Street Bakery

Cooper Street Snacks was established in 2011 as a Birmingham-based family business, owned by Elaine Surnow alongside her sons, Max and Sam. Recently, Cooper Street Snacks announced its acquisition of Harvest Valley Bakery located in LaSalle, IL. Following the acquisition, the facility was rebranded to Cooper Street Bakery, marking a significant milestone in the company’s strategic growth plan. The acquisition will bolster Cooper Street’s production capabilities and enhance its ability to meet growing demand while maintaining the highest standards of quality and food safety. The acquisition aligns with Cooper Street’s vision to strengthen its operational foundation and increase production efficiency. The newly acquired Cooper Street Bakery will operate independently from the Cooper Street Snacks brand but will play a crucial role in supporting the company’s expanding product lines. The upcoming changes reflect Cooper Street’s commitment to investing in both infrastructure and personnel to support the bakery’s operations. This strategic investment will introduce advanced baking technologies and processes, allowing the company to meet the increasing demands of the market while maintaining its quality commitments. Known for its delicious, lower-calorie cookies and granola bakes made with real fruit and no artificial ingredients, Cooper Street has been a favorite among health-conscious consumers. The brand is dedicated to providing high-quality products and continuously innovating to meet the needs of its customers. The company distributes nationwide. Locally, consumers can find Cooper Street products at Kroger, Plum Market, Sam’s Club, Whole Foods, Busch’s, Westborn Market and many other independent retailers.
