Shipley Do-Nut Flour & Supply Co
Fue en 1936, el final de la Gran Depresión, cuando Lawrence Shipley, Sr. creó una receta gourmet para Do-Nuts. Tan deliciosos eran los Do-Nuts que han resistido la prueba del tiempo. Cortados a mano y servidos calientes durante todo el día, los Do-Nuts costaban 5 centavos la docena y solo se vendían al por mayor. El producto tuvo tanto éxito que comenzó a venderse en el mercado minorista a mediados de la década de 1940. Con Lawrence Sr. ausente en rutas de donas, su esposa Lillie se quedaría atrás y haría las delicias culinarias con Lawrence Jr. en su rodilla.
People would come from miles around to sample the nectar of the sumptuous hot glazed Do-Nuts. Serving them hot was a goal of the elder Shipley. Lawrence Shipley, Sr. once said, “When they bite into that hot donut, it will bring them back every time.”
It is that very concept that continues to bring generations of donut lovers back to Shipley’s as loyal customers.
“One of the best memories I have of my father is walking to Shipley Do-Nuts on Saturday morning for that hot plain glazed,” said Kathy Froleigh. “It was the one time of the week, when Daddy was all mine, giving me his full attention. I have tried to create that same kind of memory for my own children who I take to Shipley’s every Saturday morning. They each get to pick out their favorite Do-Nuts while we sit and talk, laugh and enjoy our favorite varieties. “They never knew my father. He died before they were born. But they know him through the stories I have told of our special time together every Saturday morning when we talked about what happened during the week as we ate our Do-Nuts.” “I don’t know what I would do if we didn’t have our Shipley’s Do-Nuts,” said Froleigh. “It would be like taking away part of my history and my future.”
Lawrence Jr. worked in the business all of his life, continuing his father’s vision and making Shipley Do-Nuts the successful business it is today. He expanded the company to more than 190 stores around the nation in Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Texas, 86 of which are in the Houston area.
