The History of Tom’s Snacks


An American Pioneer 


It began in 1925, deep in the heart of Southern peanut country. Tom’s Snacks founder, Tom Huston, began as a young entrepreneur selling fresh roasted peanuts on the street of small area towns. As demand for Tom's delicious product grew, so did the company. Soon, a distributor network spread Tom's growing line of popular snacks across the nation and other snack products were added. Today, our original product, Tom's Toasted Peanuts, is still remembered by many from their childhood.
