Nice decision for their 100th anniversary

Back in 1926, local business leaders established the Mt. Olive Pickle Company to create a new market for area farmers. They chose to name it for their small hometown of Mount Olive, located in rural Eastern North Carolina. Today, nearly 100 years later, Mt. Olive is the #1 best-selling brand of pickles, peppers and relishes in the U.S.
