Felix Epstein began selling herbs and spices from a small storefront pharmacy in Germany, finding his niche in the sausage and meat industry.
Felix Epstein immigrated to the United States and opened the First Spice Mixing Company in lower Manhattan, New York.
Due to overwhelming demand, First Spice expanded to Long Island City, New York, San Francisco, California, and Toronto, Canada.
Felix Epstein’s son Peter, with a degree in Food Science and Technology from Cornell University, brought First Spice into the twenty-first century.
Peter’s three daughters: Vicki, Marcy, and Wendy, are innovating First Spice with new products that continue to exceed customer expectations.
