Chef Drew Starkweather founded Drew’s All-Natural in 1995. Drew received his first restaurant job at the age of 12, and during the following eleven years, worked his way through the ranks to become head chef at the prestigious Deerfield Inn in Historic Deerfield, Mass. It was here that people began to discover his all-natural salad dressings and marinades.
Before long, customers at the Deerfield Inn started requesting bottles of the dressings to take home. It was from this popular demand for the chef-created salad dressings that Drew’s All-Natural was formed. Drew designed the labels himself, and produced and packed those first bottles in his own kitchen. Chef Drew’s philosophy from the beginning was to offer products that were chef-created and nature-inspired, using quality natural ingredients.
Within a year a regional natural foods distributor picked up the line, making it available to customers in hundreds of stores in the northeastern U.S. Consumers were pleased to find a dressing made of all-natural ingredients with innovative flavors, and the line quickly grew beyond Drew’s production capacity.
In 1999, after outgrowing the initial production facility, Chef Drew decided to accommodate for the rising demand by constructing a new production facility in Chester, VT. The state of the art facility increased Drew’s production capacity by 800 percent, and new distribution quickly created demand for the additional output.
