 Grods prospered under Harry's and Ruby's tenure, beginning with the opening of a second location at 91 Dunsmure Road, Stamford Hill, to which baking was moved.A decade later, the bakery had expanded to six locations and even the original 31 Fieldgate Street location's demise in a 29 December 1940 German air raid could not halt expansion.By the mid-1960s Grodzinski was the largest kosher bakery in Europe, preparing both fine pastries and a range of bread, and adding to their retail business an advancing wholesale operation distributed through British retailers and department stores such as Selfridges, Marks & Spencer and Harrods.
