Chef’s Real Cut Jerky was founded in 2011 by two co-workers, Dennis Riedel and Blair Swiler. The pair would snack on beef jerky that Swiler made at home. They decided to make larger batches and start selling it at the golf course where they worked.
Today, the company is listed as #58 on the 2017 Inc. 5000 list of America’s Fastest Growing Companies. In 2016, the company had annual revenue of $26.9 million and a three year growth rate of 5,669%. The company also took the #4 spot on their list of Top Food and Beverage Companies, as well as the #7 position on the Inc. list of Top New York City Companies.
The company currently sells their products at the snack bars at almost every golf course in the US, as well as other retailers, such as Sam’s Club, Amazon, and 7-11. Swiler says that he has plans to move beyond jerky, but is reluctant to speak about specifics.
