Founded in 1918, the Retail Bakers of America (RBA), a 501c6 not-for-profit trade association of approximately 2,000 retail bakeries, allied suppliers and other members, is committed to the success of the retail baking industry. We are a baker’s business partner connecting buyers and sellers—retailers and suppliers, as well as consumers and retailers—to build profitable bakeries. We foster the community of retail bakeries providing a forum for exchange of industry and business information, as well as networking, learning opportunities and mentoring among bakers, future and existing.
