Oh Snap Pickling
Oh Snap Pickling is a food processing company in Appleton, Wisconsin that produces pickled vegetables and fruits that are sold under the brand name “OH SNAP!”[1][2] The company’s pickles ranked fourth for national sales according to an analysis by Instacart, the grocery delivery service.[3]
Originally known as Flanagan Brothers, the company began in 1900 as a distributor of cabbage in the Midwest. When the company had a surplus of cabbage, it began producing sauerkraut.[2] The current chief executive officer, Ryan M. Downs, is the great-grandson of founder Dave Flanagan.[4]
The company began producing pickles in 2015[1] and sold the sauerkraut business to Fermented Food Holdings in 2022, and is now known as Oh Snap Pickling.[5][6]
It produces pickled cucumbers, carrots and peas.[1] They are sold without brine to reduce spills.[7] The company also produces pickled apples and pineapples as well as cranberries that are infused with fruit juices to make them sweeter.[1]
