Mission Souvlaki Bread Garlic

Brand Origin and History

Mission Foods was founded in 1977 in the United States as a subsidiary of the Mexican multinational corporation Gruma (Grupo Maseca). Originally created to produce traditional corn and flour tortillas, Mission has grown into one of the largest and most well-known flatbread and wrap brands in the world, expanding its portfolio to include pita pockets, naan, and specialty Mediterranean flatbreads like souvlaki bread.

Ownership and Global Presence

The brand is ultimately owned by Gruma, S.A.B. de C.V., headquartered in San Pedro Garza García, Monterrey, Mexico. Gruma is the world's leading producer of corn flour and tortilla products, operating production facilities across the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Oceania. In the UK and Europe, Gruma operates via Gruma Holdings / Mission Foods UK, while in Oceania products are managed and produced locally by Mission Foods Australia.

Manufacturing

While Mission products sold across the UK and Europe are generally manufactured at Gruma's UK and European bakeries, this specific packaging format (marked with Australian net weight notation and retail shelf tags) is produced locally in Australia by Mission Foods Australia Pty Ltd for retail distribution.
