Hot Mama’s
Company History
Hot Mama’s, founded in 1984, was first
housed in a tiny 500 square foot facility in Millers Falls,
MA. In 1991, Matt Morse bought the young company and moved
it to Amherst, MA. Matt made a commitment that he would grow
his company by holding fast to four key goals:
-
To use the freshest, all natural
ingredients.
-
To give the best possible customer
service.
-
To engage in business practices that
reflect experience, integrity and commitment to the
environment.
-
To help employees to realize their
personal and professional goals.
Matt’s dedication to these values has
resulted in building a loyal customer base in the natural
and gourmet food categories. Matt expanded his Amherst
operations until finally Hot Mama’s outgrew the available
space. In 1999, Matt acquired The Lazy Chef line of ready to
use pesto sauces (now produced under the Hot Mama’s Gourmet
line for foodservice and the Hot Mama’s Natural line for
retail) and moved his company to much larger quarters in the
Industrial Park in Northampton, MA. Since then, the company
has expanded in its current location three times. Matt
established operations in Chicago in 2002 to serve customers
in the Midwest. In 2004, Hot Mama’s added pizzas, pizza
bagels, flavored butters and spreads to their product line.
With an employee count over 60 and growing and a wide range
of offerings, Hot Mama’s is a leading manufacturer of fresh,
