Founder Léon Speth grew up in Alsace, France, where food, family, and tradition were always at the center of life. Inspired by generations of bakers and chefs before him, he brought an authentic sourdough pretzel recipe to Colorado and built a business around quality and community.

What began as a small bakery has grown into one of Colorado's largest pretzel-focused bakeries, serving 11 farmers markets every week, local events, breweries, restaurants, hotels, and businesses across the state.

Every pretzel is still handcrafted with real ingredients, no preservatives, and no artificial flavors. But 47 Bakery has always been about more than pretzels. It's about creating moments, supporting local communities, and bringing people together to break bread

The name comes from Léon's grandfather's birth year, 1947—a tribute to the family roots that inspired it all.

Today, we're proud to be Colorado-grown, community-driven, and just getting started.
