ONEIDA, N.Y. — All-Seasonings Ingredients expects to add 11 employees in the next two years, thanks in part to a state grant.
All-Seasonings — which supplies spices, nuts, herbs, seeds and baking supplies to distributors — has grown from 12 to 60 employees in the past decade, according to a news release from New York State Homes and Community Renewal.
“What started as an idea to supply small and mid-sized food service distributors with private label spices and ingredients has become a classic business success story,” said Homes and Community Renewal Commissioner RuthAnne Visnauskas. “This grant is an investment in All-Seasonings Ingredients and the future of the City of Oneida — signs that Central New York is rising.”
