10+ BIPOC Women-Owned Spice, Seasoning, & Condiment Companies
Updated: May 24, 2021
Before you reach for that, Lawry’s check out this list of BIPOC woman-owned companies leaving a mark on a male-dominated industry.
Apothékary
Apothékary is a brand that uses food as medicine and sources its 60+ herbs from countries all over the world that include items that you can add to your everyday beverages such as water, smoothies, juices, and even coffee.
Camella’s Kitchen
This DMV-based company was founded by a mother and daughter from Trinidad and Tobago. Camella’s Kitchen offers bold Caribbean flavors that are all-natural and offer some vegan products ranging from hot sauces to spices.
Dear Dacy
This Brooklyn native, now DMV resident, offers blends such as Zesty Lemon Pepper, Adobo Mojo, Caribbean Jerk, and her infamous Cinnilla Sugar. Go ahead and stretch those fingers because Dacy’s next drop is March 21st, and she is known to sell out in minutes!
Diaspora Co.
Recommendation of Shewta of masalaandchai.com
Founded in 2017, this company offers single-origin spices. Why do single-origin spices matter? Your average supermarket spice will list its ingredients as ‘from countries of multiple origins’ which means they purchased on the global market because it is more cost-effective for the company.
HomeBeis
This Latina-owned brand offers organic and salt-free blends inspired by the owner’s Dominican upbringing and a desire to continue to cook the things from her childhood without the negative effects of salt-based seasonings. She has seasonings that you can easily replace your Adobo and many other household staples.
Hot N’ Saucy
The all-natural small-batch hot sauce created by Chef Sam Davis-Allonce has been in heavy rotation on the show Hot Ones. My personal favorite is Garlic N Pepperoncini, and I put on EVERYTHING, including my eggs!
Food Plus People
Chef Mavis-Jay and Sicily believe in creating quality food that you can cook easily, and they had me at the fact that they offer a seasoned flour mix for fried fish. They also offer hot sauce, spice rub, and pancake mix outside of their seasoned flour mix.
Pur Spices
Recommendation of Shewta of masalaandchai.com
Pur Spice offers hand-made, small-batch spices and sauces such as Harissa, Masala Paste, Green Chutney, and more.
Trade Street Jam Co.
Handcrafted vegan jam that is NOT just for biscuits, and this condiment can be used for baking, cocktails, and even poultry. The Smoked Peach and Blackberry Mulled Merlot Jam have been used in my oatmeal squares recipe previously on my blog.
The Spice Suite
This DC-based business started as a brick-and-mortar location and now offers a selection of their inventory online.
Spice Tree Organics
Recommendation of Shewta of masalaandchai.com
Two mothers from Queens, NY, set out to create a spice line that did not have additives, colors, and byproducts of some common spices. A couple of their many options include NYC Halal Cart, Greek Table, and Malaysian Curry, to name a few.
The Southern City Girl
Founded in 2017, Zahirah realized her love of food caught the eye of many close to her, and she decided to share her love of food through her spice blends.
