"The origins of George Weston Limited ("GWL") date back to 1882. In that year, Mr. George Weston, an 18-year-old baker's apprentice, purchased a bread route in Toronto and entered the bakery business. The business expanded rapidly, so that by 1896 "Weston's" was recognized as Toronto's largest bakery. Mr. Weston opened a modern new bakery in 1896 with a daily capacity of 3,200 loaves of bread. At this time, Mr. Weston had 40 employees and a weekly payroll of $350. Around 1900, the bakery business was incorporated as a private company called George Weston Bread & Cakes Ltd"--Introduction and Overview, page 1.
