Who we are

When Manoucher Etminan, creator of Manoucher Bread, came to Toronto,
Canada in 1980, he had one vision: to create a future for himself and his
only daughter.
With no prior knowledge in bread making or the food industry in 1983, he
made a promise to himself to produce the most authentic handmade breads
using only the finest, purest ingredients. Manoucher would be the first to
tell you that he wasn’t a baker. Instead he would say, ‘I am a designer of
breads’. Today, his vision has evolved into a world class artisan bakery.
