Janet Sprouse's Company Details
Chelsea Milling Company has been a family-owned business since it was established as a traditional flour mill in 1901, by our founder Harmon S. Holmes.At the start of the Great Depression Harmon's daughter-in-law, Mabel White Holmes considered how she and her family's local milling business might help those whose livelihood had been affected.In 1930, with the support of her husband Howard Samuel Holmes, Mabel's "JIFFY" brand baking mix became the first prepared baking mix sold to the public. By keeping their mixes affordable, the Holmes' new venture was able to help many families who were recovering from the effects of the Great Depression.Working alongside generations of valued employees, each successive member of the Holmes family has been able to bring positive change to the family business: introducing exciting new products, ground-breaking technological advancements, and new areas of expansion and growth.Today, "JIFFY" is the market share leader in retail prepared muffin mixes, yet our goal remains the same; to feed America, especially during difficult economic times.In 2007, we entered the foodservice segment with a range of new baking mix product formulations sold under our CMC brand, targeting K-12, healthcare, senior living, and corrections. The CMC brand has quickly become a key player in the correctional segment, as well as having a strong presence across the board.With the recent completion of our new, state-of-the-art, fully-contained foodservice production facility; in 2019 we launched our new "JIFFY" brand foodservice products, which are specifically formulated for independent, regional and national bakeries, as well as the restaurant and hospitality industries.Ninety years after our debut in 1930, our mission remains the same. At "JIFFY" our mission is to provide our consumers with the best possible value. We define Value as being the highest quality ingredients and the best price.
