About Severance Foods
Founded in the early 1980s by Richard Stevens, John Grikis and Richard Dana, Severance Foods has developed into one of the most respected specialty contract producers of tortilla chips. Currently run by Stevens, Grikis and Dana's son Lief, the company draws from their experience in the corn-based tortilla and tortilla chip sector. The company has the advantage of being able to produce an ever- changing assortment of tortilla chip shapes and flavors. They are using their experience to bring new and unusual varieties to market. Experimentation and rapid expansion has made them one of the fastest growing specialty chip processors in the industry.
