Our Mission
Create great. Succeed together. Have fun!
We’re a glass half-full kind of crew.
At Franklin Farms East, creating great always begins with building strong, long-lasting partnerships through service and solutions that stand out.
It all started with our father, Donald Riggs, who founded the company in 1983 to create a better life for his family.
By focusing on his customers first, with honesty and a commitment to quality, Don built Franklin Farms East into a best-in-class supplier to the food industry by adding value and serving as a trusted partner invested in our customers’ success.
Nearly 40 years later, that spirit of integrity and innovation still runs deep in our family, which now includes our outstanding team and long-standing customers.
We know our success starts with yours – whether you’re a large commercial bakery or a startup food manufacturer. We’ve designed our entire organization around making it easy, efficient, and exciting to work with us.
In-house product development, fast and flexible production, a team that’s on your team – we can’t wait to show you what’s possible with Franklin Farms East.
