Pollman’s Bake Shop all began 100+ years ago back in 1918 with Fred J. Pollman. He initially moved from New Orleans to Mobile to help at his brother-in-law’s bakery and later opened his own business, which continually ran until the Great Depression.

In 1937, he and his wife, Corinne, started over small and by 1950, his children Fred J. Pollman Jr., Charles Pollman and Mary Pollman Bender had acquired the business.

The second generation added two more bake shops under the Pollman name. The business stayed in the family until 1981 when it was purchased under new ownership.

Then again in 1989, Fred J. Pollman III and his wife, Rose, brought it back into the family. Together they operated the three Pollman’s Bake Shops in Alabama’s historic Mobile for 30 years! After a long and dedicated career, they are now retiring to enjoy time together.

As of 2023, the business is now under new management. Although it may not be operated by a Pollman family member today, we are absolutely proud of Pollman’s legacy and want to honor the name by restoring the brand that is so loved in the city - Here’s to another 100 years of delicious business!
