About Us: In 1929, Nubar Hintlian founded our Company in the basement of a movie theater in Somerville, MA. He roasted a small quantity of nuts at night and sold them during the day to retail stores. During the late 1930s, the Company grew and moved its operations to a small two-story building in Charlestown, MA. Its line of customers expanded to grocery stores, ice cream makers, and candy stores. In 1950 the Company grew into a 5‐story building in downtown Boston, MA and later to its current location in Cambridge, MA 1979. It is currently producing a broad range of nut products in many different packaging sizes. Our customer-base has expanded to include every type of business and food-consumer market. Distribution is coast ‐to‐coast and even overseas.
