Yes! For all of its nearly 100 years, Mt. Olive Pickle’s manufacturing plant has been located in the small Eastern North Carolina town of Mount Olive, North Carolina. Today, most of the fresh cucumbers and peppers that we use in our products are procured in the United States (and one-third of that is sourced in North Carolina). We purchase some abroad for select sizes in quantities that aren’t available in the US, and for fresh cucumbers at times of the year when domestic supplies aren’t available.
We have a few pepper items, Roasted Red Peppers, Marinated Roasted Red Peppers, and Pepperoncini, which are grown and packed for us in Peru and Greece. You’ll note the countries of origin on the labels of those products.
In recent years, to temporarily meet increased demand and sufficiently service our customers, we have worked with a trusted partner in India to produce a small number of high-volume pickle items. We also continue to produce these in North Carolina. We anticipate bringing production of most of these items wholly back to North Carolina once we have expanded our production capacity. In the meantime, you may see some items labeled as a Product of India.
