Company description

About Us – Please allow us to introduce ourselves

Sir Kensington's is best known for making condiments with character. We work to bring integrity and charm to ordinary and overlooked food. Beginning in 2010, we realized that while food was evolving, condiments weren't. So, we decided to make them better, starting with ketchup. Since then, we launched a full portfolio of condiments and dressings, and gained a cult following. Now, you can find the food we make in hundreds of leading restaurants, thousands of leading retailers, and millions of meal kit boxes across the country. But we're just getting started, and we need your help. 

In April of 2017, Sir Kensington’s joined Unilever, the leading progressive global consumer products company. With them, we're part of a family of global brands helping to define the future of good food and good business. With access to Unilever's resources and expertise, we will continue to operate independently from our SoHo headquarters.


Sir Kensington’s Mission and Values 
 

Our Mission:

 

We believe food is the most powerful human connector. To protect that superpower, we work to defend the dignity of food.

Our Values:

1— Our secret ingredient is people.
We elevate the creative, analytical and entrepreneurial power of our team and
partners to solve the biggest challenges.
2 — We act with honor, even when no one is looking. 
We do what is right and build genuine, lasting relationships based on honesty and trust.
3 — We put special sauce on everything.
We look for the diamond in the rough. Infusing every product, experience, and
relationship with magic.
4 — We think long term, yet act in short order.
We are patient enough to make big things happen, yet get the job done now - even when the job to be done is not our job at all.

Where We Impact:

Plate – Food is not a thing, it’s an experience.


We create stand-out sensory experiences that connect people to each other, to
nature, and to culture. Tasting Sir Kensington’s should remind you why you love
food in the first place.

People – People make food great.

We use food to create healthy connections for people– to each other and to better livelihoods. Whether it’s our own team, our stakeholders, or the original cultures whose food we honor, we treat people right.

Planet – The environment is a shared resource.

Equal Opportunity Employment


As Sir Kensington’s first value states, our secret ingredient is people. We seek to recruit and include people with a diversity of abilities, backgrounds, and cultures to better serve our diverse community of customers, to create a more highly effective team, and to be a responsible business within society.

-Mark and Scott, Co-founders of Sir Kensington’s
