American Institute of Baking
The American Institute of Baking, now known as AIB International,[1] is a not-for-profit corporation, founded by the North American wholesale and retail baking industries in 1919 as a technology transfer center for bakers and food processors. Although AIB's history has been traditionally linked with wholesale and retail baking, the Institute currently serves many segments of the food processing, distribution, foodservice, and retail industries worldwide.
In 1920 sculptor Jorgen Dreyer sculpted two diminutive bakers for the Rushton Baking Company on Southwest Boulevard in Rosedale, a suburb of Kansas City, Missouri. These figures were given to the American Institute of Baking in 1975. The two sculptures are in the lobby of AIB International.[2]
AIB is headquartered in Manhattan, Kansas.[3]
