Michael L. Jones has more background at Louisville Business First: Heitzman Bakery relocating Bardstown Road store to Eastland Shopping Center.

(Co-owner Linda) Osting said Heitzman needs the extra space for its growing retail business.

“The old location was never really designed to be a store where we produce massively for Kroger,” Osting added. “We made the adjustments, did what we needed to do. But as we grew with Kroger, and just grew in an overall retail aspect, we knew we needed more space. So we’re doubling the space and the beautiful wide open area.”

Back in 2013, F&D took a look at the other side of Heitzman (founded 1891): Heitzman Traditional Bakery and Deli, at 9426 Shelbyville Road.
