In 1917, Louis Neiman started his
business selling sugar out of a small warehouse located
at 3100 W. Polk Street in Chicago. He grew the business
by slowly adding commodities such as flour and
shortening. Having previously been a professional pastry
baker and candy maker, Louis knew what special
ingredients were necessary for a baker or decorator. In
1920, Neiman Brothers Company, Inc. moved to a larger
facility in Chicago located at 2721 W. Roosevelt Road.
Over the years, more products were added to the
inventory in an effort to expand the range of items that
could be offered to customers. The Neiman philosophy has
always been, and will continue to be, to carry the
highest quality products and provide superior service.
Louis' oldest
son Seymour Neiman joined the business in 1945 after
studying Food Chemistry at the University of Wisconsin
and four years in the United States Air
Force. Seymour worked closely with his father and rapidly became
sales manager. During that time, Louis' youngest son,
William Neiman, began working on weekends and
during summer vacations at the young age of
13. William continued to work throughout his undergraduate studies
and created relationships with customers in Philadelphia where he went
to college. After completing his army duties and Law
School, William officially joined Neiman Brothers Company,
Inc. in the spring of 1963. The three Neiman
men worked together to expand the variety of ingredients
they would offer their clientele including items such
as honey, spices, nuts, and fruits. Together they created
excellent recipes of their own to provide bakers with fancy
fruit fillings, flavors that would enhance any product and
chocolate icings and fudge that could be used to create
unusual desserts. In April 1966, Neiman Brothers Company, Inc. moved
to its current location at 3322 W.
Newport Avenue on the near north side of
Chicago.
Today, the business continues to grow
and representing the third generation of family members
working in the business is William's daughter Laura Neiman.
The father and daughter team work diligently together to
carry on Louis' tradition and offer outstanding food
products and stellar service. |
