Shearer's Foods makes and packages salty snacks, focusing on private-label and contract-pack production for other brands. Its core product line began as hand-cooked kettle chips, made in-house at its Ohio facilities, and the business now services retailers and food companies across North America. How it works: it operates as a full-scale contract manufacturer, handling cooking, processing, packaging and distribution of snacks for private-label brands, with facilities equipped for large-volume production. How it differs: it has a long-standing history of manufacturing from scratch (since 1979), a deep specialization in private-label and contract packing, and a wide geographic footprint supported by private-equity ownership that enables scale and reliability. What it aims for: to be one of the largest private-label salty-snack manufacturers in North America, delivering consistent quality and capacity to retailers and brand owners.

The decision was made largely due to a decrease in demand from the largest customer of the facility.” Shearer’s opened the 180,000-square-foot facility in Lubbock in 2007.
