Our History and Overview

The roots of ReConserve date back to 1935 in Southern California. At that time, fully wrapped bread loaves that had been deemed stale were returned to the bakeries where they were picked up in barrels by a small flat bed truck. This product was then unpacked by hand and put in a small mill where it was chopped up and then fed into a 4-foot diameter, 12-foot long triple-pass dryer. The finished product was then sold to our first customer, a feed mill in what was then called Dairy Valley, known today as Cerritos.

In 1962 new management took over and in 1999, the company refocused its core business and since has bakery_state_hopper_520x420 bakery_state_rearlrdr_520x420 completed four acquisitions and built six new processing facilities, significantly expanding processing capabilities. As a result, the company has grown to encompass a nationwide footprint.

Though it may have had inauspicious beginnings, ReConserve, Inc. and its subsidiaries have been pioneers and principle innovators in the field of waste removal. ReConserve was the first to design, build and install bulk loading systems helping the company become the largest recycler of bakery and cereal grain by-products and a recognized specialist in food waste removal.
