Peanuts are Good For You!
We have over 20 years in the peanut business helping to provide customers from supermarkets to stadiums with their in-shell peanuts.
Roasting peanuts 'on-site' has has been a time honored tradition since the 1880's throughout the U.S. and it is on the verge of a comeback. But, why should it with so many food choices available today? Simply because peanuts are a healthy, natural snack that have a low cost and high nutritional content. Nothing else compares to them and when made available, most everyone will say, " I'll have some peanuts".
If you choose this great addition to your product mix or just jump in and create a peanut business, you will find a universally accepted product with year around supply availability at a price that is most always stable. In fact, in the 20 years I have been 'working for peanuts', the wholesale price has not even gone up enough to keep up with inflation. The price per pound for raw in-the-shell peanuts has been under $.75 for over twenty five years. That is less than a nickle per ounce, so a 4 oz. bag should cost a vendor less than $.20 raw and $.25 roasted. The profit potential for such an item is as healthy as the peanuts are themselves. So, read on and see if this is good for you, than give us a call and we can see if it is a good fit. 800-946-8688

Antique peanut roasters (below) are from the 1890's. Some of the many "street corner" style peanut roasters that were found everywhere in America. Gone today, but could have a healthy new day for this age.
