​Background.
In 2006, using McClure's great grandmother Lala's recipe, McClure’s was started using the original pickle recipe in Brooklyn, NY and Detroit, MI. In 2009 McClures brought all manufacturing back to Michigan (one of the largest cucumber growers in the US) alonzg with a partner warehouse in New York.
​
McClure's use as much local produce as possible when it is in season and when it's not, they speak directly with the growers to know where their produce is coming from and how it is being grown, making sure they are getting the freshest produce available. Their products are all-natural, gluten-free (pickles, relish, Bloody Mary, all-natural chips, brine), and kosher certified (Michigan Kosher Supervisors, OU). https://mcclures.com/pages/culture
