Jacobsen Salt Co. was founded in 1845 and is one of the oldest and largest companies in America. During the 19th century, Jacobsen Salt Co. brought salt to the residents of America. They were one of the first companies to use rock salt instead of sea salt, which means their product is cleaner and less likely to cause clumping than their competitors. They also created a process that extracts moisture from sea salt, reducing it from a whopping 16% to a mere 1%. The brand is well known for its staff of over 150 employees who create a variety of products, including herbs and spices, seasonings, and salt substitutes. Jacobsen Salt Co. staff members include a team of chemists who develop new formulas based on customer feedback, as well as a team of food scientists who create recipes with the versatility and taste preferences in mind. These recipes are often for soup mixes or breading mixes, as well as seasoning blends for vegan or gluten-free recipes. They also make an assortment of products for specific dietary needs, such as kosher salt, kosher pepper, and gluten-free onion flakes. This company has expanded beyond just salt and spices to create a variety of products that not only rely on their expertise but also contribute to the healthiness of their customers' meals.
