Peerless Bread Machine

Peerless Bread Machine Company got its start in 1907 as a successor to the Standard Clutch Mfg. Company. E. J. Griffis was its first president. The firm manufactured a bread molder that had been invented by John Sexauer of Sidney, whose family ran a bakery here for many years. The first Peerless location, (pictured below), was at the corner of East Avenue and Clinton Street. Peerless Machinery Corp is now located at 500 South Vandemark Road in Sidney.
