Jewett-Cameron Trading Co., Inc. (NASDAQ: JCTC) is a specialty food manufacturer and distributor based in Danville, Pennsylvania. Founded in 1985, the company began as a regional importer of gourmet and ethnic food products before expanding into custom manufacturing and private-label production. Over the years, Jewett-Cameron has built a vertically integrated platform that combines importing, co-packing, and direct distribution under a single organizational structure.
The company operates through three principal divisions: a manufacturing segment that produces sauces, condiments and smoked meats; a private-label and co-packing arm that serves retail grocery chains and foodservice operators; and an import business that sources specialty foods from Europe, Latin America and Asia. These operations are supported by production facilities in Pennsylvania and distribution centers strategically located in the Mid-Atlantic and Midwest regions of the United States, as well as in Ontario, Canada.
Jewett-Cameron’s product portfolio encompasses a range of shelf-stable and refrigerated items, including salsas, mustards, barbecue sauces, spreads, tapioca-based puddings and gourmet preserves. The company’s focus on niche and value-added products has allowed it to secure listings in national supermarket chains, convenience store networks and independent specialty shops. It also provides custom formulation and packaging services, helping brand-owners and retailers bring proprietary products to market more efficiently.
The company is led by President and Chief Executive Officer Thomas R. Haskell, whose background in food manufacturing spans more than two decades, and Chief Financial Officer Mary E. Cameron, a co-founder whose expertise in international sourcing underpins the import and private-label businesses. Jewett-Cameron continues to pursue selective acquisitions and capacity expansions aimed at strengthening its position in the specialty and private-label food sectors across North America.
