Founding
Amy’s Kitchen was started by a couple named Andy and Rachel Berliner in 1987. When Rachel was pregnant, Andy couldn’t find any food for her that was organic but also tasted good. This problem led them to recruit several family members to create their own organic food business. When their new daughter Amy was born, they named the business after her.
Renewable Energy
In addition to its commitment to organic non-GMO foods, Amy’s is also committed to renewable energy. Recently Amy’s has worked out a deal with Ørsted’s Sunflower Wind Farm and will power roughly 30% of their business using this form of renewable energy. This was done as a part of Wal-Mart’s renewable energy program called the “Gigaton Power Purchase Agreement” with the goal of reducing one ton of emissions from Wal-Mart’s supply chain by 2030.
Favorite Among Vegans
Vegans love Amy’s Kitchen for its focus on non-GMO organic foods and renewable energy. Without the pressures of having to focus on quarterly profits like publically owned businesses, they have been able to meet the needs of their customers by providing healthy meals that are affordable and taste great.
