Little did Sam Cacia Sr. know, that when he opened that corner bakery on Mole and Ritner Streets in South Philadelphia in 1953, it would become an iconic business in the cityscape. Though fate did not allow him to live long enough to witness it, his eldest son Joe took the reigns, along with brothers Louis and Raymond, to ensure that the bakery would not only survive, but thrive.
Now, over 60 years later, and 4th generation in, you can still find Cacia family members at all of our locations! Joe’s son Sam and grandson Joe now run the South Philly location ( although Joe Sr. can often be found still pushing bread too!) With Louis’s son Sam in Blackwood and Raymond Sr. and his sons, Ray and Sal handling all other Jersey locations, the family continues to take pride in their work as owner /operators.
