Solly’s Bagelry
Owner: Leah Markovitch
Year Established: 1994
Solly’s Bagelry, a Jewish family bakery and deli, is a family business that was established in March 1994 on Vancouver’s Eastside and now encompasses three retail stores across the city. As a young girl, founder and current owner Leah Markovitch learned Jewish baking by observing and working with her Baba (Grandma) in her Baba’s kitchen. Many of Solly’s traditional and delicious foods stem from original recipes handed down from previous generations in Eastern Europe to her Baba, to Leah’s Mother and to Leah herself. These recipes, along with many others lovingly shared by family and friends, have been authentically recreated in Solly’s kitchens. As a company committed to Jewish baking and cuisine, Solly’s President & CEO Leah Markovitch says: “When I look back at all we’ve accomplished over the past 19 years, I cannot help but “kvell”- a Yiddish term meaning “feel delighted, proud and Joyful”.
