Today is National Popcorn Day! We are celebrating with a photo from one of our great customers, The Popcorn Factory. They specialize in fresh-popped popcorn in a wide variety of exclusively designed tins and packaging – everything from Thinking of You to Happy Halloween. Their gourmet popcorn is always popped and packed fresh and made with high quality ingredients. They start with grown-in-the-USA corn kernels and air pop it. They also purchase tins with their exclusive designs from Independent Can, also made in the USA.

According to an article in Food Business News, crunchy snacks top the specialty food category. During the pandemic and other hard times, people start treating themselves to their food favorites. “With annual sales of $6.1 billion, crunchy snacks are the top-selling specialty food category,” Denise Purcell , vice president of resource development for the Specialty Food Association, said. Independent Can is excited to participate in the Specialty Foods Association Winter Fancy Food Show in Las Vegas next week.

Popcorn, in a gift tin, has always made a great mail order, corporate, group and family gift. With so many flavors offered and dividers that allow for multiple varieties on one package, it can please many palates at once in any gift-giving season!
