Description
Generations of New Orleanians grew up on Hubig’s.
The fried, fruit-filled hand pies sold everywhere from the corner grocery to the hardware store were baked into the city’s rich culture since 1921.
“The appetite is still there, and everybody has their favorite and everybody has their own story about Hubig’s pie, and I think they want to taste that once again,” Jefferson Economic Development Commission CEO Jerry Bologna said.
News that the pie maker is now hiring again spread faster on social media than the flames that wiped out Hubig’s historic factory in the Marigny more than ten years ago.
Bologna confirmed Hubig’s has assembled a new production facility in Elmwood.
